INSTALL REAR AXLE BEARING INNER RETAINER LH AND REAR SKID CONTROL ROTOR (w/ ABS)

Using SST and a press, press in a new skid control rotor and retainer to the axle shaft until the lengths are within the standard range.

SST: 09951-01100; 09631-12090; 09726-40010

Standard length

Length A	Length B
133.2 +/-0.6 mm (5.244 +/-0.0263 in.)	56 mm (2.205 in.)

Note

If this installation measurement is not followed precisely, oil leaks and other mechanical failures will result. Follow the assembly instructions closely, and confirm that parts have been installed according to the standard length measurement.

Tech Tips

It may be easier to verify the installation by adding the length of the SST to the standard length, and then measuring the height from the surface of the press.

  Note
  
  Be careful not to damage the spring.
5. Install the front and rear brake shoes.
6. Move one of the shoes upward and install the shoe tension spring.
7. Install the shoe front or rear side to the cylinder. Then install the other side of the shoe to the other side of the cylinder.
  
  Tech Tips
  
  After one side of the shoe is installed to the cylinder, hold that side of the shoe steady. Then widen the opening of the shoe by pulling the other side of the shoe outward and install it to the other side of the cylinder.
  
  Note
  
  Be careful not to damage the cylinder dust boot.
8. Using pliers, install the front brake shoe, rear brake shoe, pins and shoe hold down springs.
