INSTALLATION SERVICE POINTS
>>A<< STABILIZER
BAR/BUSHING/FIXTURE INSTALLATION
Install the stabilizer bar, the bushings and the fixtures
as illustrated.
>>B<< SELF-LOCKING NUT
INSTALLATION
Tighten the self-locking nut until the stabilizer link
thread part protruding length meets the standard
value.
Standard value (A): 6 − 8 mm
INSPECTIONM1341001400294
•Check the bushings for wear and deterioration.
•Check the stabilizer bar for deterioration or
damage.
•Check all bolts for condition and straightness.
STABILIZER LINK BALL JOINT TURNING
TORQUE CHECK
1. After shaking the ball joint stud several times,
install the nut to the stud and use special tool
preload socket (MB990326) to measure the
turning torque of the ball joint.
Standard value: 0.5 − 1.5 N⋅m
2. If the measured value exceeds the standard
value, replace the stabilizer link.
3. If the measured value is lower than the standard
value, check that the ball joint turns smoothly
without excessive play. If so, it is possible to
re-use that ball joint.
STABILIZER LINK BALL JOINT DUST
COVER CHECK
1. Check the dust cover for cracks or damage by
pushing it with your finger.
2. If the dust cover is cracked or damaged, replace
the stabilizer link.
NOTE: Cracks or damage of the dust cover may
cause damage to the ball joint. When it is
damaged during service work, replace the dust
cover (Refer to P.34-21).

PARKING BRAKE LEVER STROKE
CHECK AND ADJUSTMENT
M1361000900339
1. Pull the parking brake lever with a force of
approximately 200 N and count the number of
notches.
Standard value: 5 − 7 notches
2. If the parking brake lever stroke is not the
standard value, adjust as described below.
(1) Remove the rear console assembly (Refer to
GROUP 52A, Rear Floor Console P.52A-8).
(2) Loosen the adjusting nut to move it to the
cable rod end so that the cable will be free.
(3) Remove the wheels.
(4) Complete air bleeding of brake circuit. (Refer
to GROUP 35A, On-vehicle Service, Bleeding
P.35A-6.)(5) Remove the rear wheel hub plug, and then
use a flat-tipped screwdriver to turn the shoe
slack adjuster in the direction of the arrow (the
direction which expands the shoe) so that the
disc will not rotate.
Return the shoe slack adjuster 5 notches in
the direction opposite to the direction of the
arrow.
(6) Turn the adjusting nut to adjust the parking
brake lever stroke to the standard value. After
adjusting, check that there is no space
between the adjusting nut and the parking
brake lever. Check that the adjusting nut is
secured with the nut holder.
CAUTION
If the parking brake lever stroke is below the
standard value and the braking is too firm, the
rear brakes may drag.
(7) Release the parking brake and turn the rear
wheels to check that the rear brakes are not
dragging.
LINING RUNNING-INM1361001100240
CAUTION
Carry out running-in in a place with good
visibility, and pay careful attention to safety.
Carry out running-in by the following procedure when
replacing the parking brake linings or the rear brake
disc rotors, or when brake performance is
insufficient.
1. Adjust the parking brake lever stroke to the
standard value.

2. Hook a spring balance onto the centre of the
parking brake lever grip and pull it with a force of
100 − 150 N in a direction perpendicular to the
handle.
3. Drive the vehicle at a constant speed of 35 − 50
km/h for 100 metres.
4. Release the parking brake and let the brakes cool
for 5 − 10 minutes.
5. Repeat the procedure in steps 2 to 4, four or five
times.

INSTALLATION
The shoe return springs are not interchangeable as
their constants are different. The one with blue paint
mark should be install at the front of the vehicle, and
the other with yellow paint at the rear of the vehicle,
respectively.
NOTE: The illustration shows the left rear wheel. The
right rear wheel is symmetrical to that.

CHECK
1. Measure the thickness of the brake lining at
several places.
Standard value: 2.8 mm
Limit: 1.0 mm
2. If the thickness of the brake lining is below the
limit, replace the shoe assemblies on both sides
of the vehicle. Never replace only one side.
3. Measure the inside diameter of the brake disc in
two places or more.
Standard value: 168.0 mm
Limit: 169.0 mm
4. If the inside diameter exceeds the limit, or if it is
excessively worn on one side, replace the rear
brake disc.

•MOMO leather-wrapped 3-spoke steering wheel
is used.
•A steering column has a shock absorbing
mechanism and a tilt steering mechanism.•Integral-type rack and pinion gear with high
rigidity and excellent response is used.
•A vane type pump with a fluid flow rate control
system which change steering effort according to
the engine speed is used.
