General Repair Instruction
1. If a floor jack is used, the following precautions are
recommended.
Park vehicle on level ground, ªblockº front or rear
wheels, set jack against the recommended lifting
points (see ªLifting Instructionsº in this section), raise
vehicle and support with chassis stands and then
perform the service operations.
2. Before performing service operations, disconnect
ground cable from the battery to reduce the chance of
cable damage and burning due to short circuiting.
3. Use a cover on body, seats and floor to protect them
against damage and contamination.
4. Brake fluid and anti±freeze solution must be handled
with reasonable care, as they can cause paint
damage.
5. The use of proper tools and recommended essential
and available tools, where specified, is important for
efficient and reliable performance of service repairs.
6. Use genuine Isuzu parts.
7. Used cotter pins, plastic clips, gaskets, O±rings, oil
seals, lock washers and self±locking nuts should be
discarded and new ones should be installed, as
normal function of the parts cannot be maintained if
these parts are reused.
8. To facilitate proper and smooth reassembly
operation, keep disassembled parts neatly in groups.
Keeping fixing bolts and nuts separate is very
important, as they vary in hardness and design
depending on position of installation.
9. Clean the parts before inspection or reassembly. Also
clean oil ports, etc. using compressed air, and make
certain they are free from restrictions.
10. Lubricate rotating and sliding faces of the parts with
oil or grease before installation.
11. When necessary, use a sealer on gaskets to prevent
leakage.
12. Carefully observe all specifications for bolt and nut
torques.13. When removing or replacing parts that require
refrigerant to be discharged from the air conditioning
system, be sure to use the Vehicle Refrigerant
Recovery and Recycling Equipment (VRRRE) to
recover and recycle Refrigerant±134a.
14. When a service operation is completed, make a final
check to be sure the service has been done properly
and the problem has been corrected.
15. SUPPLEMENTAL RESTRAINT SYSTEM
The vehicle is equipped with a Supplemental
Restraint System (SRS) ± Air Bags. This system is
not to be serviced without consulting the appropriate
service information. Consult Section 9J ªSRS
Systemº if work is to be done on the front of the
vehicle such as bumper, sheet metal, seats, wiring,
steering wheel or column. Also review SRS system
information if any arc welding is to be done on the
vehicle. The SRS system equipped vehicle can be
identified by:
1. ªAIR BAGº warning light on the instrument
cluster.
2. A Code ªKº or ªMº for fifth digit of Vehicle
Identification Number.

GENERAL INFORMATION
Lifting Instructions
CAUTION:

If a lifting device other than the original jack is
used, it is most important that the device be
applied only to the correct lifting points. Raising
the vehicle from any other point may result in
serious damage.
When jacking or lifting a vehicle at the frame side
rail or other prescribed lift points, be certain that
lift pads do not contact the catalytic converter,
brake pipes or cables, or fuel lines. Such contact
may result in damage or unsatisfactory vehicle
performance.
