1. Disconnect the battery cables as instructed. See WARNING “To avoid unintentionally starting...” in
General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
2. Place chocks at the front wheels. Loosen, but do not remove, lug nuts on rear wheels and lift the rear of
the vehicle with a chain hoist or floor jack. Place jack stands under the axle tubes to support the vehicle.
See WARNING “Lift only one end...” in General Warnings, Section 1, Page 1-2.
3. Gain access to the pedal group by removing the floor mat and access panel. See Pedal Group

4. Loosen the two jam nuts (1 and 3) on either side of turnbuckle (2) (Figure 6-1, Page 6-2) . Note that the
forward jam nut (1) is a left-hand thread. Thread each nut approximately 1/2 inch (12.7 mm) away from
the turnbuckle.
5. Loosen turnbuckle (2) to release tension on the equalizer bracket (4) that pulls on the heads of the brake
cables.

by normal methods, proceed to step 7 to minimize damage to the brake cluster and brake compo-
nents.
