MAJOR REPAIR OPERATIONS

BRAKE DRUM REFINISHING

Minor scores on a brake drum can

be removed with sandpaper. A drum

that is excessively scored or shows a

total indicator runout of over 0.007

inch should be turned down. Remove

only enough stock to eliminate the

scores and true up the drum. The refi-

nished diameter must not exceed 0.060

inch oversize.

Check the inside diameter of the

brake drum with a brake drum mi-

crometer (Tool FRE-14^1).

If the drum diameter is less than

0.030 inch oversize after refinishing^

standard lining may be installed. If

the drum diameter is 0.030—0.060

inch oversize after refinishing, oversize

lining must be installed.

After a drum is turned down, wipe

the refinished surface with a cloth

soaked in clean denatured alcohol. If

one drum is turned down, the opposite

drum on the same axle should also be

cut down to the same size.

ROTOR REFINISHING

Rotunda Disc Brake Attachment,

FRE-2249-2, is the only recommended

tool to refinish the disc brake rotors.

The step-by-step resurfacing procedure

provided with the tool must be ad-

hered to.

The finished braking surfaces of the

rotor must be flat and parallel within

0.0007 inch; lateral runout must not

exceed 0.003 inch total indicator read-

ing, and the surface finish of the brak-

ing surfaces are to be 80/15 micro

inches. The minimum limiting dimen-

sions (Figs. 11 and 12, Part 2-1) from

the inboard bearing cup to the out-

board rotor face and from the inboard

bearing cup to the inboard rotor face

must be observed when removing ma-

terial from the rotor braking surfaces.

On all models except Lincoln Con-

tinental, the limiting dimensions are to

be measured with a ball and gage bar

(Rotunda Kit FRE-70160).

BRAKE SHOE RELINING

Brake linings that are worn to with-

in 1/32 inch of the rivet head or are

less than 0.030 inch thick (bonded lin-

ing) or have been contaminated with

brake fluid, grease or oil must be re-

placed. Failure to replace worn linings

will result in a scored drum. When it
is necessary to replace linings, they

must also be replaced on the wheel on

the opposite side of the vehicle.

Inspect brake shoes for distortion,

cracks, or looseness. If this condition

exists,
the shoe must be discarded. Do

not attempt to repair a defective brake

shoe.

1.
Wash the brake shoes thoroughly

in a clean solvent. Remove all burrs

or rough spots from the shoes.

2.
Check the inside diameter of the

brake drum with a brake drum mi-

crometer (tool FRE-1431). If the di-

ameter is less than 0.030 inches over-

size,
standard lining may be installed.

If the diameter is 0.030—0.060 inches

oversize, oversize lining should be in-

stalled.

3.
Position the new lining on the

shoe.
Starting in the center, insert and

secure the rivets, working alternately

towards each end. Replacement lin-

ings are ground and no further grind-

ing is required.

4.
Check the clearance between the

shoe and lining. The lining must seat

tightly against the shoe with not more

than 0.008 inch clearance between any

two rivets.

FIG. 18 —Removing Spool

from Valve Body

7.
Dip three new valve body O-

rings and teflon rings in C1AZ-

19582-A lubricant. Install the O-rings

on the valve body being careful not to

twist them. Slide the three teflon rings

into place over the O-rings being care-

ful not to stretch them any more than

necessary.

8. Lubricate a new dampener O-

ring and install it in the spool groove.

9. Assemble the stub shaft in the

valve body making sure that the

groove in the cap engages the pin in

the body. Tap the cap lightly with a

soft-faced hammer to seat it in the

valve body.

10.
Dip the valve spool in C1AZ-

19582-A. With the notch of the spool

toward the valve body, carefully slide

the spooi over the shaft and into the

body rotating it slightly to permit easy

entry. Make sure that the dampener

O-ring is distributed evenly to prevent

TEFLON RING
damage. Guide the spool to engage

the notch with the dowel in the body.

11.
Place the spool spring on the

stub shaft with the larger diameter

toward the spool. Work the small end

of the spring down over the shaft until

the small end is seated in the groove

of the stub shaft.

12.
If, during the assembly of the

valve, the stub shaft and end cap as-

sembly is allowed to slip out of en-

gagement with the valve body pin, the

spool will be permitted to enter the

valve body too far. The dampener O-

ring seal will expand into the valve

body fluid grooves preventing with-

drawal of the spool. Attempt to with-

draw the spool with a slight pull and

much rotary motion. If this does not

free the spool after several tries, make

sure that the spool is free to rotate;

place the valve body on a flat surface

with the notched end up, and tap the

spool with a wooden or plastic rod

until the O-ring seal is cut and the

spool can be removed. Replace the

dampener O-ring seal and proceed

with the assembly procedure as be-

fore.

Apply Lubriplate liberally to one of

the ball return guides and install the

six remaining balls in the guide. Place

the other half of the guide in position

and insert them into holes in the

rack-piston. Be sure that the dark ball

in the guide is installed next to the

polished ball in the rack-piston. Install

the ball return guide clamp with

screws and lock washers. Tighten the

screws to 8-12 ft-lbs.

8. The worm groove is ground with

a high point in the center. V/hen the

rack-piston passes over this high point

there should be a preload of 1-4 in-

lbs.
Clamp the rack-piston in a vise

with soft jaws with the worm shaft

pointing up. To avoid distortion, do

not tighten the vise too tight.

9. Place the valve assembly on the

worm, engaging the worm drive pins.

with a 3/4-inch-deep wall 12-point

socket on the stub shaft, and rotate

the wrench through an arc of approxi-

mately 60 degrees in both directions

several times, then take a torque read-

ing. The highest average reading ob-

tained with the worm rotating should

be between 1-4 in-lbs.
