Front Toe Inspection/Adjustment
Use commercially-available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster,
camber, toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment
manufacturer's instructions,

Check the toe with the wheels pointed straight
ahead.

- lf adjustment is required, go on to step 4.
- lf no adjustment is required, remove alignment
equipment.
Loosen the tie-rod locknuts, and turn both tie-rods
in the same direction until the front wheels are
pointing straight ahead.
5.Turn both tie-rods equally until the toe reading on
the wheel alignment computer is correct.
After adjusting, tighten the tie-rod locknuts and
reposition the tie-rod boots if they are twisted or
displaced.

Rear Toe Inspection/Adjustment
Use commercially-available computerized four wheel
alignment equipment to measure wheel alignment (caster,
camber. toe, and turning angle). Follow the equipment
manufacturer's instructions.
Release parking brake to avoid an incorrect mea-
surement.
Check the toe.

- lf adjustment is required, go to step 2.
- lf no adiustment is required. remove alignment

Before adjustment, note the locations of adjusting
bolts on the right and left compensator arms.
Loosen the adjusting bolts, and slide the compen-
sator arm in or out. as shown, to adiust the toe.

Example: After the rear toe inspection, the wheel is 2
mm (0.08 in) out of the specification.- Move the arm so the adjusting bolt moves 2 mm
{0.08 in) inward from the position recorded before the
adjustment.- The distance the adjusting bolt is moved should be
equal to the amount out-of-specification.
5. Tighten the adjusting bolts.

Brake System Rubber Parts and Brake Booster
@-Brake Booster
Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
lf the brakes do not work properly, check the brake
booster. Replace the brake booster as an assembly ifit does not work properly or if there are signs of leak-
age.
@-Piston Cup and Pressure Cup Inspection. Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
Visually check for damage or signs of tluid leakage.Replace the master cylinder as an assembly if thepedal does not work properly or if there is damage orsigns of fluid leakage.
. Check for a difference in brake pedal stroke betweenquick and slow brake applications. Replace the mas-.
ter cylinder if there is a difference in pedal stroke.
(9-Brake Hoses
Visually check for damage or signs of fluid leakage.
Replace the brake hose with a new one if it is dam-
aged or leaking.
O-Caliper Piston S€al and Piston Boots
Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
Visually check for damage or signs of fluid leakage. lf
the pedal does not operate properly, the brakes drag,
or there is damage or signs of fluid leakage, disas-
semble and inspect the brake caliper. Replace the
boots and seals with new ones whenever the brake
caliper is disassembled.
@-Wheel Cylinder Piston Cup and Dust Cover
Check brake operation by applying the brakes.
Visually check for damage or signs of fluid leakage. lf
the pedal does not operate properly, the brakes drag,
or there is damage or signs of fluid leakage, replace
the wheel cvlinder.

Pushrod Clearance Adjustment
NOTE: Master cylinder pushrod-to-piston clearance must
be checked and adjustments made, if necessary. before
installing the master cylinder.
1. Set the special tool on the master cylinder body;
push in the center shaft until the top ot it contacts
the end of the secondary piston by turning the ad-justing nut.

Install the master cylinder nuts, and tighten them to
the sDecified toroue.
Connect the booster iniine with a vacuum gauge 0 -
101 kPa (0 - 760 mmHg, 30 in Hg) to the booster's
engine vacuum supply, and maintain an engine
speed that will deliver 66 kPa (500 mmH9, 20 in Hg)
