through the hole in the floor pan of the vehicle mak-
ing sure the cable sealing grommet is installed in the
floor pan as far as possible to insure a good seal.
(2) Attach the parking brake cable routing bracket
to the tension strut mounting bolts. Install and
tighten the mounting nuts to a torque of 28 N·m (250
in. lbs.).
(3) Install the parking brake cable into the brake
support plate or the rear disc brake adapter. Be sure
the
locking fingers on the cable retainer are
expanded once the cable is pushed all the way into
the support plate or brake adapter hole to ensure the
cable is securely held in place.
(4) On vehicles equipped with rear drum brakes:
•
Install the parking brake cable on the parking
brake cable actuating lever (Fig. 31).
•
Install the actuating spring to the brake shoe
and the brake adjustment lever (Fig. 32).
(5) On vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes:
•
Install the parking brake shoes actuator lever on
the parking brake cable (Fig. 34).
•
Install the parking brake shoe assemblies on the
disc brake adapter (Fig. 30).
(6) Install the hub and bearing on the rear spin-
dle. Install a new hub and bearing retaining nut.
Tighten the retaining nut to a torque of 217 N·m
(160 ft. lbs.).
(7) Install the hub and bearing dust cap.
(8) On drum brake equipped vehicles, install the
rear brake drum.
(9) On vehicles equipped with rear disc brakes,
install the brake rotor, then the disc brake caliper
(Refer to 5 - BRAKES/HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/
ROTORS - INSTALLATION) (Fig. 29). Install the
two caliper guide pin bolts, then tighten them to a
torque of 22 N·m (192 in. lbs.).
(10) Install the rear tire and wheel assembly
(Refer to 22 - TIRES/WHEELS - INSTALLATION).
Tighten all wheel nuts to a torque of 135 N·m (100 ft.
lbs.).
(11) Lower the vehicle.
(12) Ensure that the seal grommet on the cable
that was installed from underneath is fully seated
into the floor pan.
(13) Route the parking brake cable under the car-
peting, up to parking brake cable retaining bracket
on floor pan. Install the parking brake cable through
the retaining bracket. Push the cable in until the
locking fingers on the cable retainer lock the cable
into place.
(14) Install the rear parking brake cables into the
equalizer on the parking brake lever output cable
(Fig. 37).
(15) Ensure that the parking brake cables are cor-
rectly installed on the equalizer and aligned with the
cable track on the parking brake lever.
NOTE: The parking brake lever can be in any posi-
tion when releasing the automatic adjuster.
(16) Keeping your hands clear of the automatic
adjuster sector and pawl area, firmly grasp the park-
ing brake lever pin punch (or locking pin if a new
mechanism has been installed) (Fig. 36), then quickly
remove it from the parking brake lever mechanism.
This will allow the park brake lever mechanism to
automatically adjust the parking brake cables.
(17) Cycle the parking brake lever once to position
the parking brake cables, then return the parking
brake lever its released position.
(18) Check the rear wheels of the vehicle. They
should rotate freely without dragging with the lever
in its released position.

cushion is fully installed in the retainers on the floor
pan of the vehicle.
