2) Inspect pressure plate surface for wear, cracks, and/or
discoloration. Measure diaphragm spring ends for wear and uneven
height. Replace assembly if height difference between fingers exceeds
.02" (.5 mm).
3) Check facing of clutch disc for loose rivets, uneven
contact, deterioration, seizure or oil saturation. Measure distance
from clutch disc surface to head of rivet. Replace clutch disc if
distance is less than .012" (.30 mm). Replace worn or defective
components as necessary. See Fig. 4.
CAUTION: Install clutch disc with manufacturer's stamp mark (located
near hub of clutch disc) toward pressure plate.
Installation
1) Using a clutch alignment tool, install pressure plate and
clutch disc. If reusing pressure plate, ensure index marks are
aligned. Tighten bolts evenly in a crisscross pattern to
specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS . See Fig. 3.

cylinder, next to hydraulic line. Submerge other end of hose in
container half full of clean brake fluid. Fill reservoir with brake
fluid. Open bleeder fitting. Have assistant press clutch pedal to full
release position. Close bleeder fitting. Release clutch pedal. Repeat
until air bubbles no longer emerge from hose. Refill reservoir.

NOTE: DO NOT disassemble piston assembly.
Disassembly
Remove piston stop ring, damper and push rod assembly. See
Fig. 6 . Remove piston assembly. Note position of reservoir band for
reassembly reference. Remove reservoir.
Inspection & Reassembly
Inspect components for corrosion, scoring or damage. Replace
if necessary. Apply brake fluid to components during reassembly. On
Montero, adjust clutch master cylinder push rod to 5.90" (150 mm). On
Montero Sport, push rod adjustment is correct after adjusting clutch
pedal free play and pedal height. See CLUTCH PEDAL FREE PLAY and
CLUTCH PEDAL HEIGHT under ADJUSTMENTS. To reassemble, reverse
disassembly procedure. Ensure piston moves freely in bore.

Removal
1) Secure axle shaft assembly in a vise, and remove one
retainer bolt from backing plate. Push bearing case completely to side
of dust cover. Place adhesive tape around edge of bearing case at
retainer bolt hole to prevent damage.
CAUTION: DO NOT damage bearing case or axle shaft when grinding or
chiseling retainer ring.

ring wall thickness is .04-.06" (1.0-1.5 mm) on axle shaft side and .
08" (2.0 mm) on bearing side. See Fig. 4.
Page 388 of 1501
Using dial indicator, measure runout at back side of ring
gear. See Fig. 7. Runout must be within .002" (.05 mm). If runout is
