CAUTION!
• All propeller shaft fasteners are an important attaching part in that it could affect the performance of
vital parts and systems, and/or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one
of the same part number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a
replacement part of lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified
during reassembly to assure proper retention of this part.
• Never attempt to heat, quench or straighten any propeller shaft part. Replace it with a new part, or
damage to the part may result.
General Description

Propeller Shaft Joint CheckS6RW0D3406001
If universal joints and ball joint are suspected of
producing chattering or rattling noise, inspect them for
wear. For universal joint, check to see if cross spider
rattles in yokes are worn down and replace defective
propeller shaft assembly with new one.
Noise coming from universal joint and ball joint can be
easily distinguished from other noises because rhythm
of chattering or rattling is in step with cruising speed.
Noise is pronounced particularly on standing start or in
coasting condition (when braking effect of engine is
showing in the drive line).

General Description
Brakes ConstructionS6RW0D4101001
When the foot brake pedal is depressed, hydraulic pressure is developed in the master cylinder to actuate pistons (two
in front and four in rear).
The master cylinder is a tandem master cylinder. Brake pipes are connected to the master cylinder and they make two
independent circuits. One connects front right & rear left brakes and the other connects front left & rear right brakes.
In this brake system, the disc brake is used for the front wheel brake and drum brake (leading / trailing shoes) for the
rear brake.
The parking brake system is mechanical. It applies brake force to only rear wheels by means of the cable and
mechanical linkage system. The same brake shoes of rear drum brake are used for both parking and foot brakes.
NOTE
• The figures show LH steering vehicle.
• The difference between RH steering vehicle and LH steering vehicle is the location of the brake
master cylinder, the brake booster and ABS hydraulic unit / control module assembly.

Repair Instructions
Brake Pedal ComponentsS6RW0D4106018
CAUTION!
If equipped Brake Pedal Foot Protection
System, never disassemble brake pedal
assembly. Disassemble will spoil its original
function. If faulty condition is found, replace
it with new one.
Brake Pedal Free Height InspectionS6RW0D4106001
1) Check brake pedal free height. If it is not within
specification, check and adjust following item 2) and
6).
Brake pedal free height “a” from carpet
111 – 131 mm (4.4 – 5.1 in.)
2) Check measurement between booster mounting
surface and center of clevis pin hole. When booster
push rod clevis has been reinstalled, it is important
that the measurement is adjusted (refer to “Brake
Booster Inspection”).
3) Check brake light switch position. Adjust it if it is out
of specification.
4) Check pedal for dent.
5) Check brake booster for installation.6) Check brake booster push rod for length.
Brake Pedal Play InspectionS6RW0D4106002
Pedal play should be within the following specification. If
out of specification, check brake light switch for proper
installation position and adjust if necessary.
Also check pedal shaft bolt and booster clevis pin
installation for looseness and replace if defective.
Brake pedal play
“a”
: 1 – 8 mm (0.04 – 0.31 in.)
Excessive Pedal Travel InspectionS6RW0D4106003
1) Start engine.
2) Depress brake pedal a few times.
3) With brake pedal depressed with approximately 300
N (30 kg, 66 lbs) load, measure brake pedal to wall
(dash panel silencer) clearance “a”. If clearance is
out of specification, possible causes are as follows.
If clearance “a” is less than specification, the most
possible cause is that air is in lines or brake fluid
leakage.
Should clearance “a” remain less than specification
even after bleeding of system, other possible but
infrequent cause is malfunction of booster push rod
length out of adjustment.
• Bleed brake system. Refer to “Air Bleeding of
Brake System”.

Brake Fluid Level InspectionS6RW0D4106004
CAUTION!
Do not use shock absorber fluid or any other
fluid which contains mineral oil. Do not use a
container which has been used for mineral oil
or a container which is wet from water.
Mineral oil will cause swelling and distortion
of rubber parts in hydraulic brake system and
water mixed into brake fluid will lower fluid
boiling point. Keep all fluid containers
capped to prevent contamination.
NOTE
Be sure to use particular brake fluid either as
indicated on reservoir cap of that vehicle or
recommended in owner’s manual which
comes along with that vehicle. Use of any
other fluid is strictly prohibited.
Fluid level should be between MIN and MAX
lines marked on reservoir.
When brake warning light lights sometimes
during driving, replenish fluid to MAX level.
When fluid decreases quickly, inspect brake
system for leakage. Correct leaky points and
then refill to specified level.
1) Check master cylinder, reservoir and reservoir hose
(if equipped) for crack, damage and brake fluid
leakage. If any faulty condition exists, correct or
replace.
2) Check that brake fluid level is between MAX (1) and
MIN marks (2) on reservoir.
Brake Light Switch AdjustmentS6RW0D4106005
Adjustment should be made as follows. Pull up brake
pedal toward you and while holding it there, adjust
switch position so that clearance between end of thread
and brake pedal is as specified. Then lock it by turning
clockwise.
Clearance between brake pedal and brake light
switch
“a”: 0.5 – 1.5 mm (0.02 – 0.05 in.)
Air Bleeding of Brake SystemS6RW0D4106006
CAUTION!
Brake fluid is extremely damaging to paint. If
fluid should accidentally touch painted
surface, immediately wipe fluid from paint
and clean painted surface.
Bleeding operation is necessary to remove air whenever
it entered hydraulic brake system.
Hydraulic lines of brake system are based on the
diagonal split system. When a brake pipe or hose was
disconnected at the wheel, bleeding operation must be
performed at both ends of the line of the removed pipe or
hose. When any joint part of the master cylinder of other
joint part between the master cylinder and each brake
(wheel) was removed, the hydraulic brake system must
be bled at all 4 wheel brakes.
NOTE
Perform bleeding operation starting with rear
brake caliper or wheel cylinder farthest from
master cylinder and then at front caliper of
the same brake line. Do the same on the
other brake line.
