INSTALLATION
(1) Lubricate both ends of the torque shaft with
MS-4517 Lubricant or equivalent and install the
torque shaft from the left side reversing the removal
procedure.
(2) Install the brake booster bracket on the left
end of the shaft.
(3) Install the four brake booster retaining nuts
inside the passenger compartment. Tighten the
mounting nuts to a torque of 29 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(4) Install the retaining nut for the brake booster
bracket in the engine compartment. Tighten the
mounting nuts to a torque of 29 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
(5) Using lubriplate, or equivalent, coat the sur-
face of the brake pedal torque shaft pin where it con-
tacts the booster input rod. Also coat the surface of
the brake pedal torque shaft pin where it contacts
the brake pedal link.
CAUTION: When installing the power brake booster
input rod on the brake pedal torque shaft pin, do
not reuse the old retaining clip.(6) Install booster input rod on brake pedal torque
shaft pin and install a NEW retaining clip (Fig. 3).
CAUTION: When installing the brake pedal link on
the brake pedal torque shaft pin, do not reuse the
old retaining clip.
(7) Connect the brake pedal link to the torque
shaft. Install a NEW retaining clip at the torque
shaft end of the brake pedal-to-torque shaft link.
(8) Install the HVAC housing. (Refer to 24 - HEAT-
ING & AIR CONDITIONING/DISTRIBUTION/HVAC
HOUSING - INSTALLATION)
(9) Install the instrument panel. (Refer to 23 -
BODY/INSTRUMENT PANEL/INSTRUMENT
PANEL ASSEMBLY - INSTALLATION)
CAUTION: Do not reuse the original brake lamp
switch. The switch can only be adjusted once. That
is during initial installation of the switch. If the
switch is not adjusted properly or has been
removed for some service, a new switch must be
installed and adjusted.
(10) Remove and replace the brake lamp switch
with a NEW switch. (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/
LAMPS/LIGHTING - EXTERIOR/BRAKE LAMP
SWITCH - REMOVAL), (Refer to 8 - ELECTRICAL/

REMOVAL
CAUTION: Reserve vacuum in power brake booster
must be pumped down (removed) before removing
master cylinder from booster. This is necessary to
prevent booster from sucking in any contamination
as master cylinder is removed. This can be done
simply by pumping the brake pedal, with the vehi-
cle's engine not running, until a firm feeling brake
pedal is achieved.
(1) With engine not running, pump the brake
pedal until a firm pedal is achieved (4 or 5 strokes).
(2) Remove negative battery cable terminal from
battery.
(3) Remove positive battery cable terminal from
battery.
(4) Remove battery thermal guard shield.
(5) Remove battery clamp, nut and battery from
the battery tray.

brake booster. Lay master cylinder with primary and
secondary tubes to the side, out of the way.
CAUTION: A seal on the rear of the master cylinder
is used to create the seal for holding vacuum in the
power brake vacuum booster. The vacuum seal on
the master cylinder MUST be replaced whenever the
master cylinder is removed from the power brake
vacuum booster.
(14) Disconnect vacuum hose from check valve
located on booster.DO NOT REMOVE CHECK

DESCRIPTION - ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM
Four-wheel disc antilock brakes are standard on all
models. The Mark 20e antilock brake system is used
on all models. Depending on whether the vehicle is a
left-hand drive (LHD) or right-hand drive (RHD)
model, the integrated control unit (ICU) is located in
one of two locations. On LHD models, the ICU is
mounted above the front suspension cradle/cross-
member below the master cylinder. On RHD models,
the ICU is located behind the front suspension cra-
dle/crossmember on the left side of the vehicle.

UNIT) - RHD
REMOVAL - RHD
NOTE: Before proceeding, review all WARNINGS
AND CAUTIONS.
(1) Disconnect the negative (ground) cable from
the battery and isolate cable.
(2) Using a brake pedal depressor, move and lock
the brake pedal to a position past the first inch of
pedal travel.This will prevent brake fluid from
draining out of the master cylinder when the
brake tubes are removed from the HCU.
(3) Raise vehicle. See Hoisting in the Lubrication
And Maintenance.
(4) Remove the routing clip attaching the ICU wir-
ing harness to the ICU mounting bracket (Fig. 1).CAUTION: Do not apply a 12 volt power source to
any terminals of the HCU connector when discon-
nected.
(5) Remove the 24-way connector (Fig. 1) from the
CAB. The 24-way connector is removed from the CAB
using the following procedure. Grasp the lock on the
24-way connector (Fig. 1) and pull it as far out as
possible (Fig. 2). This will raise and unlock the
24-way connector from the socket on the CAB.

CAUTION: Before removing the brake tubes from
the HCU, the HCU must be thoroughly cleaned. This
must be done to prevent dirt particles from falling
into the ports of HCU or entering the brake tubes.
(6) Thoroughly clean all surfaces of the HCU, and
all brake tube nuts located on the HCU. Use only a
solvent such as Mopar Brake Parts Cleaner or an
equivalent to clean the HCU.
(7) Remove the brake tubes (6) from the inlet and
outlet ports on the HCU. (Fig. 3).
(8) Remove the 3 bolts (Fig. 4) attaching the ICU
mounting bracket to the front suspension crossmem-
ber.
(9) Remove ICU and the mounting bracket as a
unit from the vehicle.
(10) Remove the 3 bolts (Fig. 5) mounting the ICU
to the mounting bracket. Separate the ICU from the
mounting bracket.
(11) For the procedure on separating and attaching
the CAB to the HCU, refer to DISASSEMBLY.
DISASSEMBLY
(1) Remove the ICU from the vehicle. (Refer to 5 -

INSTALLATION - RHD
(1) Install the ICU on the mounting bracket (Fig.
5). Install the 3 bolts (Fig. 5) attaching the ICU to
the mounting bracket. Tighten the 3 mounting bolts
to a torque of 11 N´m (97 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: The ICU mounting bracket to front sus-
pension cradle mounting bolts have a unique corro-
sion protection coating and a special aluminum
washer. For this reason, only the original, or origi-
nal equipment Mopar replacement bolts can be
used to mount the ICU bracket to the front suspen-
sion crossmember.
(2) Install the ICU and its mounting bracket as an
assembly on the front suspension crossmember.
Install the 3 bolts attaching the ICU bracket to the
crossmember (Fig. 4). Tighten the 3 mounting bolts
to a torque of 28 N´m (250 in. lbs.).
CAUTION: Because of the flexible section in the pri-
mary and secondary brake tubes, and the brake
tubes between the HCU and the proportioning
valve, the brake tubes must be held in proper ori-
entation when tightened and torqued. These tubes
must not contact each other or other vehicle com-
ponents when installed. Also, after the brake tubes
are installed on the HCU, ensure all spacer clips are
reinstalled on the brake tubes.
CAUTION: When installing the chassis brake tubes
on the HCU valve block, they must be located cor-
rectly in the valve block to ensure proper ABS oper-
ation. Refer to (Fig. 3) for the correct chassis brake
tube locations.
NOTE: The chassis brake tube attachment locations
to the HCU, are marked on the bottom of the ICU
mounting bracket.
(3) Install the 6 chassis brake tubes into their cor-
rect port locations on the HCU valve block as shown
in (Fig. 3). Tighten the tube nuts to a torque of 17
N´m (145 in. lbs.).
NOTE: Before installing the 24-way connector in the
CAB be sure the seal is properly installed in the
connector.(4) Install the 24-way connector (Fig. 1) on the
CAB using the following procedure. Position the
24-way connector in the socket of the CAB and care-
fully push it down as far as possible. When connector
is fully seated by hand into the CAB socket, push in
the connector lock (Fig. 2). This will pull the connec-
tor into the socket of the CAB and lock it in the
installed position.
NOTE: The CAB wiring harness must be clipped to
the ICU mounting bracket. This will ensure the wir-
ing harness is properly routed and does not contact
the brake tubes or the body of the vehicle.
(5) Clip the cab wiring harness (Fig. 1) to the ICU
mounting bracket.
(6) Install the routing clips (Fig. 9) on the brake
tubes.
(7) Lower the vehicle.
(8) Connect negative cable back on negative post of
the battery.
(9) Bleed the base and ABS hydraulic systems.
Refer to ANTILOCK BRAKE SYSTEM BLEEDING.
(10) Road test vehicle to ensure proper operation
of the base and antilock brake systems.
