DESCRIPTION AND OPERATION
Rear Drive Halfshafts
The rear wheel drive halfshaft system consists of and operates as follows:
zHalfshafts (4K138) transmit engine torque from the rear axle housing to the rear wheels.
z Halfshafts rotate at approximately one- third the speed of a driveshaft and do not contribute to
rotational vibration disturbances.
z A constant velocity (CV) joint is a mechanism for transmitting uniform torque and rotary motion
while operating through a range of angles.
z CV joints at both inboard (differential) and outboard (wheel) ends provide operating
smoothness.
z The inboard CV joints are plunge- type joints that provide the axial movement necessary to
affect shaft length changes.
z The outboard CV joints have a higher angle capability than the inboard CV joints to
accommodate suspension travel.
z Inboard and outboard CV joints connect to a splined shaft.
z A driveshaft bearing retainer circlip retains the splined inboard CV joint to the differential side
gear. Install a new circlip every time you remove the halfshaft from the vehicle.
z A rear axle wheel hub retainer secures the interconnecting shaft and outboard CV joint to the
rear hub.
z The lubed-for- life CV joints use special CV joint grease. They require no periodic lubrication.
z To separate the halfshaft from the rear hub, press the outboard CV joint from the rear hub.
z To separate the halfshaft from the differential, apply a load to the back face of the inboard CV
joint assembly to overcome the circlip.
z The halfshaft assemblies are not repairable. Install a new assembly if worn/damaged.

Component Tests
Brake Booster
1. Check the hydraulic brake system for leaks or insufficient fluid.
2. With the transmission (7003) in NEUTRAL, stop the engine (6007) and apply the parking brake control (2780). Apply the brake pedal several times to exhaust all vacuum in the system.
3. Apply the brake pedal and hold it in the applied position. Start the engine. If the vacuum system is operating, the brake pedal will tend to move downward under constant foot pressure. If no
motion is felt, the power brake booster system is not functioning. Continue with the following
steps.
4. Remove the vacuum booster hose from the check valve connection. Manifold vacuum must be available at the check valve end of the vacuum booster hose with the engine at idle speed and
the transmission in NEUTRAL. If the manifold vacuum is available to the power brake booster,
connect the vacuum booster hose to the power brake booster check valve and repeat Steps 2
and 3.
5. If no downward movement of the brake pedal is felt, install a new power brake booster.
6. Operate the engine a minimum of 10 seconds at fast idle. Stop the engine, and let the vehicle stand for 10 minutes. Then apply the brake pedal with approximately 89 N (20 lb) of force. The
brake pedal feel should be the same as that noted with the engine operating. If the brake pedal
feels hard (no power assist), install a new power brake booster check valve and retest. If the
brake pedal feels spongy, bleed the hydraulic system to remove air. For additional information,
refer to Bleeding — System in this section. Check Valve z
Engine running at idle speed.
z CAUTION: Do not hold the brake pedal at 444 Nm
(100 lb) force for more than 5 seconds at a time.
z Apply brake pedal with approximately 444 Nm (100 lb)
force and hold.
z Check hydro-boost unit input seal, housing seal,
accumulator seal, piston seal and spool plug seal for
leakage.

The function of the power brake booster check valve is to allow manifold vacuum to enter the power
brake booster and prevent the escape of vacuum in case manifold vacuum is lost during sustained full
throttle operation.
To test the function of the power brake booster check valve :
zStart and run the engine for at least 10 seconds.
z Operate the brake pedal to check for power assist.
z Disconnect the vacuum booster hose from the power brake booster check valve. Do not remove
the power brake booster check valve from the power brake booster.
z There should be enough vacuum retained in the brake booster for at least one more power-
assisted brake operation.
Brake Master Cylinder — Normal Conditions
The following conditions are considered normal and are not indications that the brake master cylinder
is in need of service.
Condition 1: During normal operation of the brake master cylinder, the fluid level in the brake master
cylinder reservoir will rise during brake application and fall during release. The net fluid level (i.e., after
brake application and release) will remain unchanged.
Condition 2: A trace of brake fluid will exist on the booster shell below the master cylinder mounting
flange. This results from the normal lubricating action of the master cylinder bore and seal.
Condition 3: Fluid level will decrease with pad wear.
Brake Master Cylinder — Abnormal Conditions
Changes in brake pedal feel or travel are indicators that something could be wrong in the brake
system. GO to Symptom Chart for abnormal condition diagnosis.
Bypass Condition Test 1. Disconnect the brake lines at the brake master cylinder.
2. Plug the outlet ports of the brake master cylinder.
3. Apply the brakes. If brake pedal height cannot be maintained, the brake master cylinder has an internal leak and must be rebuilt or replaced.
Compensator Port Check
The purpose of the compensator ports in the brake master cylinder is to supply any additional brake
fluid required by the system due to brake pad wear and to allow brake fluid returning from the brake
lines to the brake master cylinder to enter the brake master cylinder reservoir.
The returning brake fluid will cause a slight turbulence in the brake master cylinder reservoir. Klj . 14 ba

7. Bleed each brake tube at the brake master cylinder as follows:
1. Have an assistant pump the brake pedal, and then hold firm pressure on the brake pedal.
2. Loosen the rear most brake tube fittings until a stream of brake fluid comes out. While the assistant maintains pressure on the brake pedal, tighten the brake tube fitting.
3. Repeat this operation until clear, bubble- free fluid comes out.
4. Refill the brake master cylinder reservoir as necessary. Repeat the bleeding operation at the front brake tube.
Master Cylinder Priming — 4.6L
1. CAUTION: Use only bleed screws on the engine side of the brake master cylinder
(2140). The hydro- boost bleed screw, located near the dash on the hydro- booster
casting, is for the booster cavity filled with power steering fluid, not brake fluid.
Connect a clear waste line to the bleed screw closet to the booster first and the other end in a
container partially filled with recommended brake fluid.
2. Open the bleeder screw, have an assistant push the brake pedal down slowly through full travel, close the bleeder screw, then return brake pedal slowly to full released position. Wait five
seconds, then repeat operation until air bubbles cease to appear.
3. Repeat Step 2 for bleeder screw farthest from hydro- booster. Klj . 3 ba

GENERAL PROCEDURES
Hydro-
Boost Bleeding
1. NOTE: The Hydro- Boost power brake booster (2B560) is generally self- bleeding, and the
following procedure will normally bleed the air from the power brake booster. Normal operation
of the vehicle will further remove any additional trapped air.
Fill the power steering oil reservoir (3A697) with MERCON® Multi- Purpose ATF XT-2-QDX or
MERCON® equivalent.
2. Remove the powertrain control module (PCM) fuse to prevent the engine from starting.
3. Crank the engine for several seconds.
4. Check the fluid level in the power steering oil reservoir and add if necessary. Install the powertrain control module (PCM) fuse.
5. Start the engine.
6. With the engine running, turn the steering wheel (3600) from stop- to-stop twice. Turn the engine
off.
7. Depress the brake pedal (2455) several times to discharge the accumulator.
8. Repeat Steps 5 and 6.
9. If foaming occurs, stop the engine and allow the foam to dissipate.
10. Repeat Steps 5 and 6 as required, until all the air is removed from the system (when the foaming stops).
