DISC BRAKES

a tine cut file.

Do not use any solvent except dena-

tured alcohol. Do not use a 

 scraper 

8. With a punch, drive one dowel pin from inboard

side through caliper and friction pads to stop. Install

new cross-shaped retaining spring under installed
dowel pin, then install second dowel pin. Loose 

ting dowel pins must be replaced.

9. Before operating vehicle, depress brake pedal sev-

eral times to adjust friction pads to brake discs.

Check brake fluid level and add fluid as necessary to

bring level up to “MAX” on reservoir.

Car owners must be informed that a break-in period
exists for new friction pads, and that they must avoid
unnecessary, forceful braking during the first 125
miles after installation of new friction pads.

Checking Brake Disc for Lateral 

1. Remove front wheel assembly.

2. Remove front wheel bearing hub cap and spindle
nut cotter pin. Tighten spindle nut until all free play
is removed from wheel bearings.

3. To check disc 

 use Dial Indicator Set 

 Attach dial support C-clamp to an upper ball

joint attaching bolt as shown in Figure 

 Posi-

tion dial indicator button against brake disc 

 inch

from outer circumference.

Figure 

 Checking Brake Disc Lateral 

4. Rotate disc, reading maximum dial indicator

movement. Maximum permissible 

 is 

inch.

5. If 

 exceeds 

 inch, remove disc and hub

assembly and true disc in a suitable disc turning

lathe, following manufacturer’s instructions. The

depth of cut on each side of disc should be just deep
enough to get a true flat surface.

6. After truing disc on both sides, check thickness

with a micrometer. A disc with a thickness of less

than ,394 inch is liable to warp after hard braking
and, therefore, must be discarded.

7. Reinstall brake disc and hub assembly, removing
all play from wheel bearings. Repeat 

 

check.

If 

 still exceeds 

 inch, replace brake disc.

8. Adjust front wheel bearings.

9. Reinstall front wheel assembly.

MAJOR REPAIR

REMOVING AND INSTALLING BRAKE CALIPER

1. Remove left or right front wheel and remove fric-

tion pads from brake caliper.

2. Loosen brake line to brake caliper union nut sev-
eral turns. Unscrew brake caliper plus brake hose
bracket from steering knuckle. Remove it from brake
disc and swing it sideways. Then unscrew brake pipe
from brake hose and remove brake caliper and brake
pipe (bent pipe). To prevent brake fluid loss, close
brake hose with a plug.

3. Prior to installation,

check contacting surfaces of

the brake caliper and steering knuckle to make sure
they are free of any burrs and dirt.

4. Install brake caliper on steering knuckle and
torque attaching bolts to 72 

 See Figure 

CAUTION: 

This disc brake 

 attachments fas-

tener is an important attaching part in that it could
affect the performance of vital components and sys-
tems, 

 could result in major repair expense. It

must be replaced with one of the same part number

 with an 

 part, if 

 becomes

necessary. Do not use a replacement part of 

 

 substitute design. Torque 

 must be

used as 

 during reassembly to assure 

retention of this part.

5. Attach brake pipe to brake hose.

6. Install friction pads and replace wheel.
