Pull out primary piston assembly straight so as not to cause any
damage to inside of cylinder wall.
Pull out secondary piston assembly straight so as not to cause
any damage to inside of cylinder wall and by tapping flange with
a piece of wood or something soft.
3') For vehicle without ABS
Remove piston stopper bolt. Then remove secondary piston by
blowing compressed air into hole from which piston stopper bolt
was removed.
Be cautious during removal as secondary piston jumps out.

INSPECTION
Inspect all disassembled parts for wear or damage, and replace
parts if necessary.
NOTE:

Wash disassembled parts with brake fluid.

Do not reuse piston cups.
Inspect master cylinder bore for scoring or corrosion. It is best to re-
place corroded cylinder.
Corrosion can be identified as pits or excessive roughness.
NOTE:
Polishing bore or master cylinder with cast aluminum body
with anything abrasive is prohibited, as damage to cylinder
bore may occur.
Rinse cylinder in clean brake fluid. Shake excess rinsing fluid from
cylinder. Do not use a cloth to dry cylinder, as lint from cloth cannot
be kept from cylinder bore surfaces.
ASSEMBLY
NOTE:

See NOTE at the beginning of this section.

Before assembling, wash each part in fluid recommended to
use for that vehicle.
1) Install secondary piston assembly into cylinder.
2) Install primary piston assembly in cylinder.
3) Depress, and install circlip.
4) Install piston stopper bolt with pistons pushed in all the way and
tighten it to specified torque (For vehicle without ABS).

NOTE:
All brake fasteners are important attaching parts in that they could affect the performance of vital parts
and systems, and / or could result in major repair expense. They must be replaced with one of same part
number or with an equivalent part if replacement becomes necessary. Do not use a replacement part of
lesser quality or substitute design. Torque values must be used as specified during reassembly to assure
proper retention of all parts. There is to be no welding as it may result in extensive damage and weakening
of the metal.

5B-2 FRONT BRAKE
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
DISC BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY
This caliper is mounted to the brake caliper carrier with two caliper pin bolts. Hydraulic force, created by applying
force to the brake pedal, is converted by the caliper to friction. The hydraulic force acts equally against the piston
and the bottom of the caliper bore to move the piston outward and to move (slide) the caliper inward, resulting in
a clamping action on the disc. This clamping action forces the pads (linings against the disc, creating friction to
stop the vehicle.
NOTE:

Lubricate parts as specified. Do not use lubricated shop air on brake parts as damage to rubber compo-
nents may result. If any component is removed or line disconnected, bleed the brake system.
Replace pads in axle sets only. The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners.

For identification of the brake caliper type, see maker name or mark on brake caliper as shown.

REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2) Remove brake flexible hose mounting bolt from caliper. As this
will allow fluid to flow out of hose, have a container ready before-
hand.
3) Remove caliper pin bolts.
4) Remove caliper.
DISASSEMBLY
Before disassembly, clean all around caliper with brake fluid.
1) Remove anti noise shim (if equipped) and blow compressed air
into cylinder through bolt hole where flexible hose was fitted.
With this air pressure, piston can be pushed out of cylinder.
WARNING:
Do not apply too highly compressed air which will cause
piston to jump out of cylinder. It should be taken out grad-
ually with moderately compressed air. Do not place your
fingers in front of piston when using compressed air.

2) Remove piston seal using a thin blade like a thickness gauge,
etc.
CAUTION:
Be careful not to damage inside (bore side) of cylinder.
INSPECTION
Cylinder Boot
Check boots for breakage, crack and damage. If defective, replace.
Piston Seal
Excessive or uneven wear of pad lining may indicate unsmooth re-
turn of the piston. In such a case, replace rubber seal.
ASSEMBLY
Reassemble front brake in reverse order of disassembly, noting the
following points.
CAUTION:

Wash each part cleanly before installation in the same
fluid as the one used in master cylinder reservoir.

Never use other fluid or thinner.

Before installing piston and piston seal to cylinder, apply
fluid to them.

After reassembling brake lines, bleed air from them.
Piston Seal
Piston seal is used to seal piston and cylinder and to adjust clear-
ance between pad and disc. Replace with a new one at every over-
haul. Fit piston seal into groove in cylinder taking care not to twist
it.
