1999-2000 BRAKES
Disc & Drum - Trucks & Vans
DESCRIPTION & OPERATION
Hydraulic brake system uses a tandem master cylinder with a vacuum power assist servo. All models (except
Land Cruiser) are equipped with front disc brakes and rear drum brakes standard. Rear disc brakes are standard
on Land Cruiser models.
A Load-Sensing Proportioning Valve (LSVP) is used to regulate brake pressure between front and rear brakes.
Rear brakes on all models are self-adjusting.
Parking brake lever mechanically activates rear brakes. On models with rear drum brakes, a cable applies rear
shoes. On models with rear disc brakes, parking brake is a drum brake internal to rear disc assembly.
BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM
BLEEDING PROCEDURES
1. If master cylinder is rebuilt or reservoir is empty, bleed master cylinder first. Bleed wheels in sequence.
Start on wheel with longest hydraulic line, and work toward wheel with shortest hydraulic line.
2. Raise and support vehicle. Ensure brake fluid reservoir is at least half full during bleeding procedure.
Connect one end of transparent vinyl tube to bleeder screw. Submerge other end of tube in a container
half filled with clean brake fluid.
3. Have an assistant depress brake pedal several times and hold in depressed position. Loosen bleeder screw,
and drain fluid into container. Tighten bleeder screw. WARNING:For warnings and procedures regarding vehicles equipped with Anti-Lock
Brake Systems (ABS), see appropriate ANTI-LOCK article.
NOTE: For disc brake coverage on Lexus LX470, see Land Cruiser information in this
article. The 1999 Land Cruiser and Lexus LX470 information is the same. The
2000 Land Cruiser information for models equipped with traction control ABS is
the same on 2000 LX470. Models with traction control ABS do not use a Load-
Sensing Proportioning Valve (lspv) and By-Pass Valve (BPV).
CAUTION: DO NOT allow reservoir to run dry during brake bleeding procedure. Use
only clean brake fluid. Ensure no dirt or other foreign matter contaminates
brake fluid. DO NOT mix different types of brake fluid, as they may not be
compatible. DO NOT spill brake fluid on vehicle, as it may damage paint. If
brake fluid contacts paint, immediately wash with water.
NOTE: Ensure brake pedal remains depressed until bleeder screw is tightened.
