and push in the piston while letting some brake fluid
escape.

INSPECTION AND REPAIR
1. MEASURE PAD LINING THICKNESS
Using a ruler, measure the lining thickness.
Standard thickness:
11.0 mm (0.433 in.)
Minimum thickness:
1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
Replace the pads if the thickness is less than the minimum
(the 1.0 mm slit is no longer visible) or if it shows signs of un-
even wear.
2. MEASURE DISC THICKNESS
Using a micrometer, measure the disc thickness.
Standard thickness:
16.0 mm (0.630 in.)
Minimum thickness:
15.0 mm (0.591 in.)
Replace the disc if the thickness of the disc is at the minimum
thickness or less. Replace the disc or grind it on a lathe if it
is badly scored or worn unevenly.
3. MEASURE DISC RUNOUT
Using a dial indicator, measure disc runout 10 mm (0.39 in.)
from the outer edge of the disc.
Maximum disc runout:
0.05 mm (0.0020 in.)
If the disc's runout is at the maximum value or greater, check
the bearing play in the axial direction and check the axle hub
runout (See page SA±38). If the bearing play and axle hub
runout are not abnormal, adjust the disc runout.
4. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST DISC RUNOUT
(a) Remove the hub nuts and the disc. Reinstall the disc 1/5 of
a turn round from its original position on the hub. Install and
torque the hub nuts.
Torque: 103 NVm (1,050 kgfVcm, 76 ftVlbf)
Remeasure the disc runout. Make a note of the runout and
the disc's position on the hub.
(b) Repeat (a) until the disc has been installed on the 3
remaining hub positions.
(c) If the minimum runout recorded in (a) and (b) is less than 0.05
mm (0.0020 in.), install the disc in that position.
(d) If the minimum runout recorded in (a) and (b) is greater than
0.05 mm (0.0020 in.), replace the disc and repeat step 3. BR±34

stretched.
3. REMOVE DISC
(a) Place matchmarks on the disc and rear axle hub.
(b) Remove the disc.
HINT: If the disc cannot be removed easily, return the shoe
adjuster until the disc turns freely.

INSPECTION AND REPAIR
1. INSPECT DISASSEMBLED PARTS
Inspect the disassembled parts for wear, rust or damage.
2. MEASURE BRAKE SHOE LINING THICKNESS
Using a ruler, measure the thickness of the shoe lining.
Standard thickness:
2.5 mm (0.098 in.)
Minimum thickness:
1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
If the lining thickness is at the minimum thickness or less, or
if there is severe, uneven wear, replace the brake shoe. BR±36

Page 906 of 2543
3. MEASURE BRAKE DISC INSIDE DIAMETER
Using a vernier caliper, measure the inside diameter of the
disc.
Standard inside diameter:
190 mm (7.48 in.)
Maximum inside diameter:
191 mm (7.52 in.)
Replace the disc if the inside diameter is at the maximum val-
ue or more. Replace the disc or grind it with a lathe if the disc
is badly scored or worn unevenly.
4. INSPECT PARKING BRAKE LINING AND DISC FOR
PROPER CONTACT
Apply chalk to the inside surface of the disc, then grind down
the brake shoe lining to fit. If the contact between the disc and
the brake shoe lining is improper, repair it using a brake shoe
grinder or replace the brake shoe assembly.
5. MEASURE CLEARANCE BETWEEN PARKING BRAKE
SHOE AND LEVER
Using a feeler gauge, measure the clearance.
Standard clearance:
Less than 0.35 mm (0.0138 in.)
If the clearance is not within the specification, replace the
shim with one of the correct size.
Thickness m(in.) Thickness mm(in.)
0.3 (0.012) 0.8 (0.031) (2JZ±GTE only)
0.6 (0.024) 0.9 (0.035) (2JZ±GE only)
6. IF NECESSARY, REPLACE SHIM
(a) Remove the parking brake shoe lever, and install the correct
size shim.
(b) Install the parking brake shoe lever with a new C±washer.
(c) Remeasure the clearance.
