from the smaller diameter end of the tool, and
expand the seal rings. Do two rings at a time from
each end of the sleeve.
NOTE;
. Do not over-expand the seal ring. Installthe resin
seal rings with care so as not to damage them'
After installation, be sure to contract the seal
rings using the specialtool (sizing tool).
. There are two types of sleeve seal rings: black
and brown. Do not mix the different types of
sleeve seal rings as they are not compatible
Set the special tool in the grooves in the sleeve, and

lf the pinion shaft, valve housing, and gearbox
housing are replaced, select the new shim{s) as fol-
lows.
Shim selection:
a. Set the four 32 mm shims on the bearing surface of
the gearbox housing. Total thickness of the four
shims should equal no more than 0 70 mm'

Install the knuckle in the reverse order of removal,
and pay particular attention to the following items:
. Be careful not to damage the ball joint boots
when installing the knuckle,
. Torque all mounting hardware to the specified
torque values.
. Torque the castle nuts to the lower torque speci-
fications. then tighten them only far enough to
align the slot with the pin hole. Do not align the
castle nut by loosening.
. Install new cotter pins into the castle nuts after
torquang.
. Avoid twisting the sensor wires when installing
the wheel sensor.
. Before installing the brake disc. clean the mating
surfaces of the front hub and the inside of the
brake disc.
. Before installing the wheel, clean the mating sur-
face of the brake disc and the inside of the wheel.. Check the front wheel alignment, and adjust it if
necessary {see page 18-4).

Front Brake Pads
Inspection and Replacement
NOTE: There are two types of front brake calipers:
The caliper types can be identified by the "5410" or"2056" stamped on the caliper body as shown below.
Check the type of the brake caliper before servicing.
5i110 Type:
NOTE: For 2056 type disassembly procedures. see page
19-'10.
Never use an air hose or dry brush lo clean brake
assgmblios.
Use an OSHA approved vacuum cleaner to avoid
breathing brake dust.
Loosen the front wheel nuts slightly, then raise the
vehicle, and support it on safety stands. Remove
the front wheels.
Remove the brake hose bracket from the knuckle.
Remove the caliper bolt, and pivot the caliper up
out of the wav.

4. Remove the pad shim. pad retainers, and pads.
NOTE: When the caliper is equipped with an outer
pad shim, replace the shim together with the pads
5. Using vernier calipers, measure the thickness of
each brake pad lining. The measurement does not
include the pad backing plate thickness.
Brake Pad Thickno$:
Standard: 9.5 - 10.5 mm 10.37 - 0.41 in)

7. Clean the caliper thoroughly; remove any rust, and
check for grooves and cracks.
8. Check the brake disc for damage and cracks.
9. lnstall the pad retainers,
10. Apply grease to the points indicated by the arrows
in the following illustration:
NOTE: Use the pad grease included in the pad set
or Molykote Nl77 grease, and apply a thin coat of
grease evenly to the designated points.

1 1. Install the brake pads and pad shim correctly.
. Whon reusing the pads, always reinstall the
brake pads in their original positions to prevont
loss of braking efticiency.
. Contaminated brake discs or pads teduce stop-
ping ability. Keep grease oft the discs and pads'
NOTE: lnstall the Dad with the wear indicator on
the inside.l.t
'12. Push in the piston so that the caliper will fitoverthe
pads, Make sure that the piston boot is in position
to prevent damaging it when pivoting the caliper
down.
Pivot the caliper down into position, then install the
caliper bolt and tighten it.
CAUTION: Be caretul not damage the pin boot
when pivoting the caliper dowr.
lnstall the brake hose bracket on the knuckle
NOTE: Inspect the brake hose for interference or
twisting.
Depress the brake pedal several times to make sure
the brakes work. then test-drive.
NOTE: Engagement of the brake may require a
greater pedal stroke immediately after the brake
pads have been replaced as a set. Several applica-
tions of the brake pedal will restore the normal
Dedal stroke.
After installation. check for leaks at hose and line
joints or connections, and retighten if necessary.
