GENERAL
Special Handling Instructions for AWD Models
FRONT WHEEL MEASUREMENTS
1. Place the front wheels on the brake tester.
2. Perform the brake test.
Caution
The rear wheels should remain on the ground.
3. If the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, jack
up the vehicle and manually rotate each wheel to check the
rotation condition of each wheel.
NOTE
If the brake dragging force exceeds the specified value, the
cause may be the effect of the viscous coupling’s dragging
force, so jack up the front wheels and check the rotation
condition of the wheels in this state for no effect by the
viscous coupling’s dragging force.
REAR WHEEL MEASUREMENTS
After placing the rear wheels on the brake tester, follow the
same procedures as for the front wheel measurements.
WHEEL BALANCE
FRONT WHEEL MEASUREMENTS
Jack up the rear wheels, and place an axle stand at the
designated part of the side sill.
2. Jack up the front wheels and set a pick-up stand and
balancing machine in place.
Caution
1. Set so that the front and rear of the vehicle are at
the same height.
2. Release the parking brake.
3. Rotate each wheel manually and check to be sure
that there is no dragging.
3. Use the engine to drive the tires, and then make the
measurements.
Caution
1. If an error is indicated in the state of engine drive,
motor drive can be used concurrently.
2. Do not operate the clutch suddenly, or increase or
reduce speed suddenly during the work.
REAR WHEEL MEASUREMENTS
1. Jack up the front wheels, and place an axle stand at the
designated part of the side sill.
2. Jack up the rear wheels, and then, after setting a pick-up
stand and balancing machine in follow the same
procedure as for front wheel measurements.

BRAKE TEST
In order to stabilize the viscous coupling’s dragging force, the
brake test should always be conducted after the speedometer
test.
