REAR BRAKE INSPECTION

PROCEDURE

1. INSPECT PAD LINING THICKNESS

   1. 

      *a

      Ruler

      Using a ruler, measure the rear disc brake pad lining thickness.

      Standard thickness

      9.5 mm (0.374 in.)

      Minimum thickness

      1.0 mm (0.0394 in.)

      If a rear disc brake pad lining thickness is less than the minimum thickness, replace the rear disc brake pads.

      Tip:

      Be sure to check rear disc thickness when replacing the rear disc brake pads with new ones.

2. INSPECT REAR DISC BRAKE PAD SUPPORT PLATE

   1. Make sure that the rear disc brake pad support plates have sufficient rebound, no deformation, cracks or wear, and that all rust and dirt are cleaned off. If necessary, replace the rear disc brake pad support plates.

3. INSPECT DISC THICKNESS

   1. 

      *a	Micrometer

      Using a micrometer, measure the rear disc thickness.

      Standard thickness

      10.0 mm (0.394 in.)

      Minimum thickness

      8.0 mm (0.315 in.)

      If the rear disc thickness is less than the minimum thickness, replace the rear disc.

4. INSPECT DISC RUNOUT

   1. Inspect the rear axle hub bearing looseness and rear axle hub runout.

   2. 

      Using SST to hold the rear disc, tighten the rear disc with the 5 hub nuts.

   3. 

      *a	Dial Indicator

      Using a dial indicator, measure the disc runout 10 mm (0.394 in.) from the outer edge of the rear disc.

      Maximum disc runout

      0.15 mm (0.00591 in.)

      Note:

      Keep the magnet of the dial indicator away from the rear axle hub and bearing assembly.

      If the runout exceeds the maximum value, change the installation position of the rear disc to minimize the runout. If the runout exceeds the maximum even when the installation position is changed, grind the rear disc. If the rear disc thickness is less than the minimum, replace the rear disc.

   4. Remove the 5 hub nuts and rear disc.
