cylinder. Do not pull the metal tube

away from the cylinder. Pulling the

tube out of the cylinder connection

will bend the metal tube and make in-

stallation difficult. The tube will sepa-

rate from the cylinder when the cylin-

der is removed from the backing

plate.

4.
On all except the front wheels on

Ford, Mercury, and Meteor models,

remove the wheel cylinder attaching

bolts and lock washers and remove the

cylinder. On the front wheel of Ford,

Mercury and Meteor models, remove

the nut and washer that attaches the

cylinder to the anchor pin. Remove

the cylinder from the anchor pin.

INSTALLATION

Wipe the end(s) of the hydraulic

line to remove any foreign matter be-

fore making connections.

1.
On all models except Ford, Mer-

cury and Meteor, to install a front

wheel cylinder, position the cylinder to

the backing plate. Install the two lock

washers and attaching bolts. Torque

them to specifications.

On Ford, Mercury and Meteor

models, to install a front wheel cylin-

der, position the cylinder on the an-

chor pin against the backing plate. In-

stall the washer and cylinder attaching

nut on the anchor pin, and torque it

to specification. Lock the washer re-

tainer securely.

2.
Install a new copper gasket over

the hose fitting. Thread the hose into

the cylinder and tighten it to specified

torque.

3.
Engage the opposite end of the

hose to the bracket on the frame. In-

stall the horseshoe-type retaining clip,

and connect the brake tube to the

hose with the tube fitting nut. Tighten

the nut to specification with tool

1112-144.

4.
To install a rear wheel cylinder,

place the rear wheel cylinder into po-

sition. Enter the tubing into the cylin-

der, and start the tube fitting nut into

the threads of the cylinder.

5.
Secure the cylinder to the back-

ing plate by installing the attaching

bolts and lock washers.

6. Tighten the tube fitting nut to

specification with tool 1112-144.

7.
Install the links in the ends of

the wheel cylinder, install the shoes

and adjuster assemblies, and adjust

the shoes as outlined in this section.

8. Adjust the brakes (Part 2-2, Sec-

tion 2). Install the brake drum and

wheel. Bleed the brakes and centralize

the differential valve as outlined in

Part 2-1, Section 2.

1.
Remove the front wheel cover.

Remove the wheel and tire assembly

from the hub and rotor assembly. Be

careful to avoid damage or interfer-

ence with the caliper splash shield or

bleeder screw fitting.

2.
Disconnect the brake line from

the caliper. Cap the hose to prevent

*he brake fluid from leaking from the

master cylinder.

3.
Remove the safety wire and the

two bolts that attach the caliper as-

sembly to the spindle.

4.
Lift the caliper assembly off the

rotor and place it on the bench.

Installation

1.
Position the caliper assembly on

the rotor, and mate the mounting bolt

holes in the caliper with those in the

spindle. It may be necessary to push

the caliper piston into the cylinder

bore to obtain clearance between the

shoe and lining assembly and the

rotor.

2.
Install the caliper to spindle at-

taching bolts and torque them to spe-

cification. The upper bolt must be

tightened first. Install the safety wire

on the bolts and twist the wire ends at

least five turns. Push the wire ends

against the spindle to avoid interfer-

ence with the brake hose and the

steering stop. Check to insure that the

rotor runs squarely and centrally be-

tween the two brake shoes.

3.
Position the brake hose fitting

with a new copper washer on each

side of the fitting on the caliper as-

sembly. Install the bolts and torque to

specification.

in the

spindle.
It may be
necessary
to
push

the caliper pistons into
the
cylinder

bores
to
obtain clearance between
the

shoe

should
be
seated properly
on the

bridges.

3.
Install
the
caliper
to

re-

taining bolts
and
torque them
to
spec-

ification. Check
to
insure that
the

rotor runs squarely
and
centrally
be-

tween
the two

of the
caliper.

These should
be
approximately 0.090-

0.120 inch clearance between

BRAKE BOOSTER

REMOVAL

1.
Working from inside the\ vehicle

below the instrument panel, disconnect

the booster push rod from the brake

pedal assembly. To do this, proceed as

follows:

Disconnect the stop light switch

wires at the connector. Remove the

hairpin retainer. Slide the stop light
switch off from the brake pedal pin

just far enough for the switch outer

hole to clear the pin, and then remove

the switch from the pin and booster

push rod. Be careful not to damage

the switch during removal. Slide the

booster push rod and the nylon wash-

ers and bushing off the brake pedal

pin (Figs. 29 thru 33).

2.
Open the hood and remove the

master cylinder from the booster. Se-

cure it to one side without disturbing

the hydraulic lines. It is not necessary

to disconnect the brake lines, but care

should be taken that the brake lines

are not deformed. Permanent defor-

mation of brake lines can lead to tube

failure.

3.
Disconnect the manifold vacuum

hose or hoses from the booster unit.

4.
Remove the booster-to-dash

panel attaching nuts or bolts (Figs. 29

thru 33). Remove the booster and

bracket assembly from the dash panel,

sliding the push rod link out from the

engine side of the dash panel.

5.
On Fairlane, Montego, and Fal-

con models, remove the push rod link

boot from the dash panel.

INSTALLATION

1.
On Fairlane, Montego and Fal-

con models, install the push rod link

boot in the hole in the dash panel as

shown in Fig. 23. Install the four

spacers on the mounting studs.

2.
Mount the booster and bracket

assembly to the dash panel by insert-

ing the push rod or push rod link in

through the hole and boot in the dash

panel. Install the bracket-to-dash

panel attaching lock nuts or bolts

(Figs.
29 thru 33).

3.
Connect the manifold vacuum

hose or hoses to the booster.

4.
Before installing the master cyl-

inder, check the distance from the

outer end of the booster assembly

push rod to master cylinder surface.

Turn the screw in or out to obtain the

specified length. Refer to Part 2-1,

Section 2, Power Brake Master Cylin-

der Push Rod Adjustment. Install the

master cylinder and torque the attach-

ing nuts to specifications.

5.
Working from inside the vehicle

below the instrument panel, connect

the booster push rod link to the brake

pedal assembly. To do this, proceed as

follows:

Install the inner nylon washer, the

booster push rod, and the bushing on

the brake pedal pin. Position the

switch so that it straddles the push

rod with the switch slot on the pedal

pin and the switch outer hole justprocarmanuals.com
