INSPECT PAD LINING THICKNESS
Using a ruler, measure the pad lining thickness.
| Standard thickness |
|---|
| 11.5 mm (0.453 in.) |
| Minimum thickness |
|---|
| 1.0 mm (0.0394 in.) |
If the pad lining thickness is less than the minimum, replace the pad.
Note
Be sure to inspect the rear disc when replacing the brake pads with new ones.
INSPECT REAR DISC BRAKE ANTI-RATTLE SPRING
Make sure that the rear disc brake anti-rattle spring has sufficient rebound, no deformation, cracks or wear, and that all rust and dirt are cleaned off. If necessary, replace the rear disc brake anti-rattle spring.
INSPECT REAR DISC
Inspect the rear disc for cracks. If there are any defects as mentioned below, replace the disc with a new one.
There is a crack more than 30 mm (1.18 in.) in length (include the hole diameter) (A in the illustration).
There is a crack that reaches either the inner or outer edge of the disc (B in the illustration).
INSPECT DISC THICKNESS
Using a micrometer, measure the disc thickness.
| Standard thickness |
|---|
| 28.0 mm (1.10 in.) |
| Minimum thickness |
|---|
| 26.0 mm (1.02 in.) |
If the disc thickness is less than the minimum, replace the rear disc.
INSPECT DISC RUNOUT
Using SST to hold the disc, tighten the disc with the 3 nuts.
Tech Tips
Use SST to hold the disc while tightening the nuts.
Using a dial indicator, measure the disc runout 7 mm (0.276 in.) away from the outer edge of the rear disc.
| Maximum disc runout |
|---|
| 0.06 mm (0.00236 in.) |
If the runout exceeds the maximum value, change the installation position of the disc to minimize runout. If the runout exceeds the maximum even when the installation position is changed, check the bearing play in the axial direction and the axle hub runout Click here. If they are normal, and if the disc thickness is not within the specified range, grind the disc. If the disc thickness is less than the minimum, replace the disc.
Remove the rear disc.
