from the trailing park brake shoe.
(26) Remove the hold down spring and pin (Fig.
157) from the trailing park brake shoe.
(27) Remove the trailing park brake shoe from the
adapter.
(28) Remove the park brake shoe actuator from
the adapter and inspect for signs of abnormal wear
and binding at the pivot point.
INSTALL
(1) Install the trailing brake shoe on the adapter.
NOTE: When the hold down pin is installed, the
long part of the hold down pin is to be positioned
strait up and down. This will ensure that the hold
down pin is correctly engaged with the adapter.
(2) Install the hold down spring and pin (Fig. 157)
on the trailing park brake shoe.
(3) Install the upper return springs (Fig. 156) on
the trailing park brake shoe.
(4) Install the upper return springs on the leading
park brake shoe (Fig. 155). Then position the top of
the leading park brake shoe at the upper anchor and
rotate the bottom of the shoe outward until correctly
installed on the adapter.

long part of the hold down pin is to be positioned
strait up and down. This will ensure that the hold
down pin is correctly engaged with the adapter.
(6) Install the hold down spring and pin (Fig. 153)
on the leading park brake shoe.
(7) Install the lower return spring (Fig. 152) on
the leading and trailing park brake shoes.When
installing the hold down spring it is to be
installed behind the park brake shoes (Fig.
152).

outer C/V joint and into the end of the axle. (Fig.
150).
(11) In a progressive criss-cross pattern, tighten
the 4 hub/bearing mounting bolts until the hub/bear-
ing is squarely seated against the axle. Then tighten
the hub/bearing mounting bolts to a torque of 129
N´m (95 ft. lbs.).

hole in the adapter.Be sure all the locking tabs
on the park brake cable retainer are expanded
out to ensure the cable will not pull out of the
adapter.
(14) Install the end of the park brake cable on the
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.
(15) Install aNEWhorseshoe clip on the park
brake cable retainer (Fig. 146). The horseshoe clip is

shoes. See Park Brake Shoe Adjustment in the
adjustment section in this group of the service man-
ual for the proper park brake shoe adjustment proce-
dure.

(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.

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.
CAUTION: Before moving vehicle, pump the brake
pedal several times to insure the vehicle has a firm
brake pedal to adequately stop vehicle.

DISASSEMBLY AND ASSEMBLY (Continued)

Check the guide pin dust boots to determine if they
are in good condition. Replace if they are damaged,
dry, or found to be brittle. Refer to Guide Pin Bush-
ing Service in Disc Brake Caliper Service in this sec-
tion of the service manual.
CALIPER GUIDE PIN BUSHING SERVICE
The double pin caliper uses a sealed for life bush-
ing and sleeve assembly. If required this assembly
can be serviced using the following procedure.
REMOVING CALIPER GUIDE PIN BUSHINGS
(1) Remove caliper from brake rotor (See Brake
Shoe Removal). Hang caliper assembly on a wire
hook away from the brake rotor.
(2) Push out and then pull the steel sleeve from
the inside of the bushing using your fingers as shown
in (Fig. 180).
(3) Using your fingers, collapse one side of the
bushing. Then pull on the opposite side to remove
the bushing from the brake caliper housing (Fig.
181).
INSTALLING CALIPER GUIDE PIN BUSHINGS
(1) Fold the bushing in half lengthwise at the solid
middle section of the bushing (Fig. 182).
(2) Insert the folded bushing into the caliper hous-
ing (Fig. 183).Do not use a sharp object to per-
form this step due to possible damage to the
bushing.
(3) Unfold the bushing using your fingers or a
wooden dowel until the bushing is fully seated intothe caliper housing. Flanges should be seated evenly
on both sides of the bushing hole (Fig. 184).
(4) Lubricate the inside surfaces of the bushing
using Mopar, Silicone Dielectric Compound or an
equivalent.
(5) Install guide pin sleeve into one end of bushing
until seal area of bushing is past seal groove in
sleeve (Fig. 185).
(6) Holding convoluted boot end of bushing with
one hand, push steel sleeve bushing through boot
until one end of bushing is fully seated into seal
groove on one end of sleeve (Fig. 185).
(7) Holding sleeve in place, work other end of
bushing over end of sleeve and into the seal grove on
sleeve (Fig. 186). Be sure other end of bushing did
not come out of seal grove in sleeve.
