BRAKES 5-3
SUBSTANDARD OR
CONTAMINATED BRAKE FLUID
Improper brake fluid, mineral oil or water in the fluid
may cause the brake fluid to boil or the rubber compo-
nents in the hydraulic system to deteriorate.
If primary piston cups are swollen, then rubber parts
have deteriorated. This deterioration may also be evi-
denced by swollen wheel cylinder piston cups on the
drum brake wheels.
If deterioration of rubber is evident, disassemble all
hydraulic parts and wash with alcohol. Dry these parts
with compressed air before assembly to keep alcohol
out of the system. Replace all rubber parts in the sys-
tem, including hoses. Also, when working on the
brake mechanisms, check for fluid on the linings. If ex-
cessive fluid is found, replace the linings.
If master cylinder piston seals are satisfactory, check
for leakage or excessive heat conditions. If condition
is not found, drain fluid, flush with brake fluid, refill and
bleed system.
The system must be flushed if there is any doubt as
to the grade of fluid in the system or if fluid has been
used which contained parts that have been subjected
to contaminated fluid.
DIAGNOSIS
ROAD TESTING BRAKES
Brakes should be tested on dry, clean, smooth and
reasonably level roadway which is not crowned. Road
test brakes by making brake applications with both
light and heavy pedal forces at various speeds to de-
termine if the vehicle stops evenly and effectively.
Also drive vehicle to see if it leads to one side or the
other without brake application. If it does, check the
tire pressure, front end alignment and front suspen-
sion attachments for looseness. See diagnosis chart
for other causes.
BRAKE FLUID LEAKS
Check the master cylinder fluid levels. While a slight
drop in reservoir level does result from normal lining
wear, an abnormally low level indicates a leak in the
system. In such a case, check the entire brake system
for leakage. If even a slight evidence of leakage is
noted, the cause should be corrected or defective
parts should be replaced.
If fluid level is lower than the minimum level of reser-
voir, refilling is necessary. Fill reservoir with specified
brake fluid.
Brake fluid: Refer to reservoir tank cap.
CAUTION:
Since brake system of this vehicle is factory-
filled with brake fluid indicated on reservoir
tank cap, do not use or mix different type of
fluid when refilling; otherwise serious damage
will occur.
Do not use old or used brake fluid, or any fluid
from a unsealed container.

LSPV (Load Sensing Proportioning Valve) ASSEMBLY (if equipped)
As shown in figure below, LSPV is included within the brake circuit which connects the master cylinder and the rear
wheel brake. It controls the hydraulic pressure applied to the rear wheel brake according to the loaded state of the
vehicle (or weight of the load), whereby preventing the rear wheels from getting locked prematurely.
Also, it releases the above described control over the hydraulic pressure applied to the rear wheel brake, should
any failure occur in the hydraulic circuit of the front wheel brake so that the hydraulic pressure produced in the mas-
ter cylinder is applied to the rear wheel brake directly to operate it.
CONSTITUTION
The LSPV components are grouped into three sections as follows.
ªAº: Sensor section
The main parts in this section are a lever and a spring which senses variation in the vehicle height as affected
by the loaded condition and converts it into the load.
ªBº: Hydraulic pressure control section
Included in this section are a stepped plunger and valve mechanism to execute proportional control.
ªCº: Fail-safe section
The main parts in this section are a chamber which draws in the hydraulic pressure from the front wheel brake
system and a fail-safe piston which releases the valve mechanism in the control section connected to the rear
wheel brake, should any failure occur in the front wheel brake system.

TRANSFER 7D-1
The aluminum transfer case directly connected to the
back of the transmission contains the input gear,
countershaft & gear, output rear shaft, output low gear
and output front shaft (for front drive) connected by
way of the hyvo-chain.
The transfer has such a selective mechanism as to
enable the shift control lever to make selection of high
speed (direct connection with transmission output:
main shaft), low speed (speed reduction by input
gear, counter gear and output low gear) or neutral by
way of the reduction sleeve located between input
gear and output low gear, and selection of two-wheel-
drive (high speed only) or four-wheel-drive (high or
low speed) by way of the front drive clutch sleeve lo-cated at the center of the output rear shaft. Also, with
a synchronizer installed to the front drive clutch, it is
possible to change the drive mode between 2WD
(high speed only) and 4WD (high speed only) even
while running.
The front drive shift fork has an auxiliary spring to
make a smooth shift from 4H to 2H possible.
The case has an oil gutter and a plate at synchronizer
to provide proper lubrication even under the strict
conditions of use.
WARNING:
For towing the vehicle for the purpose of repair or
the like, follow the towing instructions in OWN-
ER'S MANUAL.
