park brake actuator lever (Fig. 146).
NOTE: The horseshoe clip must be installed and
installed properly when the park brake cable isinstalled in the adapter. The purpose of the horse-
shoe clip is to prevent park brake cable retainer
from moving in the adapter. If horseshoe clip is not
installed the park brake cable retainer will rattle in
the adapter.

(19) Carefully lower caliper and brake shoes over
rotor and onto the adapter using the reverse proce-
dure for removal (Fig. 144).
CAUTION: When installing guide pin bolts extreme
caution should be taken not to crossthread the cal-
iper guide pin bolts.
(20) Install the caliper guide pin bolts (Fig. 143).
Tighten the guide pin bolts to a torque of 22 N´m
(192 in. lbs.).
(21) Clean all foreign material off the threads of
the outer C/V joint stub shaft. Install the washer and
hub nut (Fig. 141) on the stub shaft of the outer C/V
joint.
(22) Set the parking brake.
(23) Tighten the hub nut to a torque of 244 N´m
(180 ft. lbs.).
(24) Install the spring washer (Fig. 140) on the
stub shaft of the outer C/V joint.
(25) Install the nut retainer and cotter pin (Fig.
139) on the stub shaft of the outer C/V joint.
(26) Install the wheel and tire assembly.
(27) Tighten the wheel mounting stud nuts in
proper sequence until all nuts are torqued to half
specification. Then repeat the tightening sequence to
the full specified torque of 129 N´m (95 ft. lbs.).
(28) Remove jackstands or lower hoist.
(29)Fully apply and release the park brake
pedal one time. This will seat and correctly
adjust the park brake cables.
