SET REAR AXLE LOAD
Tech Tips
If the vehicle unladen weight exceeds the specification, set it by following step 5.

INSTALL LSPV GAUGE (SST) AND BLEED AIR
RAISE FRONT BRAKE PRESSURE 9,807 kPa (100 kgf/cm2, 1,422 psi) AND CHECK REAR BRAKE PRESSURE
Tech Tips
Gradually depress on the brake pedal until the pressure reaches the specified valve. Do not overshoot the specified pressure. Read the value of rear pressure 2 seconds after adjusting to the specified fluid pressure.

IF VEHICLE UNLADEN WEIGHT EXCEEDS SPECIFICATION, SET IT BY FOLLOWING STEPS
Make a graph of rear axle load and brake fluid pressure as shown in example 1 or 2, using the applicable data of ABC point data table.
Input the rear axle load on the applicable graph and find out the fluid pressure crossover point.
Example: When the rear axle load is 1,200 kg (2,646 lb), the fluid pressure crossover point is 6,865 kPa (70 kgf/cm2, 996 psi).
Calculate the rear brake pressure when the front brake pressure is 9,807 kPa (100 kgf/cm2, 1,422 psi) using the following formula.
X: Fluid Pressure Crossover Point
X + (100 - X) x 0.25
Example:
X: 6,865 kPa (70 kgf/cm2, 996 psi)
70 + (100 - 70) x 0.25= 77.5
Rear brake pressure: 7,600 kPa (77.5 kgf/cm2, 1,102 psi)
Service limit: +- 800 kPa (8 kgf/cm2, 116 psi)

IF NECESSARY, ADJUST FLUID PRESSURE
Adjust the length of the shackle.
Lower pressure - Lengthen "A"
High pressure - Shorten "A"
| Initial set |
|---|
| 120 mm (4.72 in.) |
| Adjusting |
|---|
| 112 to 128 mm (4.40 to 5.04 in.) |
If the pressure cannot be adjusted by the shackle, raise or lower the valve body.
Lower pressure - Lower
High pressure - Raise
Torque the nuts.
| Torque |
|---|
| 12.5 N*m (130 kgf*cm, 9 ft.*lbf) |
Adjust the length of the shackle again.
If it cannot be adjusted, inspect the valve body.
