POWER BRAKE BOOSTER
DESCRIPTION
The power brake booster mounts on the engine
compartment side of the dash panel. It is connected
to the brake pedal by the input (push) rod (Fig. 64).
The master cylinder is bolted to the front of the
booster. A vacuum line connects the power brake
booster to the intake manifold.
All Left-Hand-Drive (LHD) vehicles use a 270 mm
single diaphragm vacuum power brake booster. All
Right-Hand-Drive (RHD) vehicles use a 225/200 mm
tandem diaphragm vacuum power brake booster. Vehicles equipped with Disc/Disc brakes use a dif-
ferent power brake booster than vehicles equipped
with Disc/Drum brakes. Differences between the two
are internal. Service is the same for all boosters. The power brake booster can be identified by the
tag attached to the body of the booster (Fig. 65). This
tag contains the production part number, the date it
was built, and who the manufacturer of the power
brake booster is.

PROPORTIONING VALVE
DESCRIPTION - PROPORTIONING VALVE
(HEIGHT SENSING)
NOTE: Only vehicles without antilock brakes (ABS)
have a proportioning valve. Vehicles with ABS uti-
lize electronic brake distribution which is controlled
through the ABS integrated control unit.
Vehicles not equipped with ABS use a height sens-
ing proportioning valve. It is mounted to the body of the vehicle above the rear axle (Fig. 80). It has an
actuator lever that attaches to the rear axle and
moves with the axle to help the valve sense the vehi-
cle height.
CAUTION: The height sensing proportioning valve
is not adjustable. No attempt should be made to
adjust it. It is replaced as a complete assembly.
CAUTION: The use of after-market load leveling or
load capacity increasing devices on this vehicle are
prohibited. Using air shock absorbers or helper
springs on this vehicle will cause the height sens-
ing proportioning valve to inappropriately reduce
the hydraulic pressure to the rear brakes. This inap-
propriate reduction in hydraulic pressure potentially
could result in increased stopping distance of the
vehicle.
OPERATION - PROPORTIONING VALVE
(HEIGHT SENSING)
Vehicles not equipped with ABS use a height sens-
ing proportioning valve. The height sensing proportioning valve operates
similarly to a standard proportioning valve in the fol-
lowing way. As hydraulic pressure is applied to the
valve, full input hydraulic pressure is supplied to the
rear brakes up to a certain pressure point, called the
split point. Beyond the split point, the proportioning
valve reduces the amount of hydraulic pressure to
the rear brakes according to a given ratio. Thus, on
light brake applications, approximately equal
hydraulic pressure will be transmitted to both the
front and rear brakes. Upon heavier brake applica-
tions, the hydraulic pressure transmitted to the rear

CAUTION: Do not attempt to adjust the height sens-
ing proportioning valve. If found to be defective,
replace the valve.(9) Remove the pressure test fittings and pressure
gauges from the proportioning valve. (10) Install the chassis brake lines in the correct
ports of the proportioning valve. Tighten all tube
nuts to 17 N´m (145 in. lbs.). (11) If necessary, repeat the above steps on the
remaining side of the proportioning valve which con-
trol the other rear wheel brake. (12) Attach the actuator lever and bracket to the
rear axle. (13) Bleed rear brakes. (Refer t o 5 - BRAKES -

If runout is in excess of the specification, check the
lateral runout of the hub face. Before removing the
rotor from the hub, place a chalk mark across both
the rotor and the one wheel stud closest to where the
high runout measurement was taken. This way, the
original mounting spot of the rotor on the hub is
indexed (Fig. 85). Remove the rotor from the hub. NOTE: Clean the hub face surface before checking
runout. This provides a clean surface to get an
accurate indicator reading.
Mount Dial Indicator, Special Tool C-3339, and
Mounting Adaptor, Special Tool SP-1910, to the steer-
ing knuckle. Position the indicator stem so it contacts
the hub face near the outer diameter. Care must be
taken to position stem outside of the stud circle, but
inside of the chamfer on the hub rim (Fig. 86). Hub runout should not exceed 0.03 mm (0.0012
inch). If runout exceeds this specification, the hub
must be replaced. (Refer t o 2 - SUSPENSION/
FRONT/HUB / BEARING - REMOVAL)(Refer to 2 -
SUSPENSION/REAR/HUB / BEARING - REMOVAL) If the hub runout does not exceed this specifica-
tion, install the rotor back on the hub, aligning the
chalk marks on the rotor with a wheel mounting
stud, two studs apart from the original stud (Fig. 87).
Tighten nuts in the proper sequence and torque to
specifications. Recheck brake rotor runout to see if the runout is
now within specifications. (Refer t o 5 - BRAKES/HY-
DRAULIC/MECHANICAL/ROTOR - SPECIFICA-
TIONS) If runout is not within specifications, reface or
replace the brake rotor. (Refer t o 5 - BRAKES/HY-

Minimum allowable thickness is the minimum
thickness which the brake rotor machined surface
may be cut to.
CAUTION: Do not machine the rotor if it will cause
the rotor to fall below minimum thickness.
Before installation, verify the brake rotor face and
the hub adapters are free of any chips, rust, or con-
tamination. When mounting and using the brake lathe, strict
attention to the brake lathe manufacturer's operating
instructions is required. Machine both sides of the brake rotor at the same
time. Cutting both sides at the same time minimizes
the possibility of a tapered or uneven cut. When refacing a rotor, the required TIR (Total
Indicator Reading) and thickness variation limits
MUST BE MAINTAINED. Extreme care in the oper-
ation of rotor turning equipment is required. Specifi-
cations for brake rotor machining can be found in
this section's specification table. (Refer to 5 -
