REAR BRAKE(for Opposed Type Caliper) INSPECTION

PROCEDURE


  1. CHECK BRAKE CYLINDER AND PISTON


    1. Check the cylinder bore and piston for rust and scoring.

  2. INSPECT PAD LINING THICKNESS


    1. A004J67

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

      Standard Thickness
      9.0 mm (0.354 in.)
      Minimum Thickness
      1.2 mm (0.0472 in.)

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

      Tech Tips

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

  3. INSPECT DISC THICKNESS


    1. A004JQJ

      Using a micrometer, measure the rear disc thickness.

      Standard Thickness
      20.0 mm (0.787 in.)
      Minimum Thickness
      18.0 mm (0.709 in.)

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

  4. INSPECT DISC RUNOUT

      *1 Dial Indicator

      Check the bearing play in the axial direction and check for the axle hub runout Click here.

    2. Tighten the disc with the 5 nuts.

      Torque:
      120 N*m  { 1224 kgf*cm, 89 ft.*lbf }

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

      Maximum disc runout
      0.07 mm (0.0028 in.)

      Note


      • If the runout exceeds the maximum value, change the installation positions of the disc and axle to make the minimum runout. If the runout exceeds the maximum even when the installation positions are changed, replace the rear disc.

    4. Remove the 5 hub nuts and rear disc.

      *1 Dial Indicator

      Set the dial indicator 10 mm (0.394 in.) inside the rear disc outer circumference, and then rotate the rear disc to check the runout at the back.

      Maximum disc runout
      0.07 mm (0.0028 in.)
