CALIPERS
You are not required to replace or rebuild calipers in axle
sets. However, when replacing or rebuilding a caliper due to the
conditions that follow, you may suggest servicing, rebuilding, or
replacement of the other caliper (on the same axle) for improved
performance and preventive maintenance (for example, the part is close
to the end of its useful life, replacing the caliper may extend pad
life, or contribute to more balanced braking).
CAUTION: When installing loaded calipers, it is required that
friction material be matched in axle sets for consistent
braking characteristics.

Page 364 of 1501
tape. Install BJ boot, bands and DOJ boot on shaft. Ensure correct
size boot is installed in proper location.
2) Pack proper amount of grease in BJ and BJ boot. See
CV JOINT GREASE CAPACITY table. Boot bands must be installed so lever
is pulled toward rear of vehicle when band is tightened.
3) Place DOJ cage on shaft with smaller diameter installed
first. Install circlip, DOJ inner race and snap ring on shaft. Apply
grease to DOJ inner race and cage. Install balls into cage. Apply
proper amount of grease to outer DOJ race. See
CV JOINT GREASE CAPACITY table. Install shaft into DOJ outer race.

4) Place DOJ boot over DOJ outer race. Install boot bands so
lever is pulled toward rear of vehicle when band is tightened. Adjust
DOJ boot bands to have proper distance between center line of boot
bands. Distance should be 3.03-3.27" (76.9-83.0 mm). This distance is
necessary to control air in DOJ boot. Tighten boot bands. Install boot
