The park brake system consists of the following:
Receives, multiplies, and transfers park brake system apply input force from driver to park brake cable system.
Releases applied park brake system when lever release button is depressed and lever is returned to the at rest position.
Transfers input force received from park brake lever, through park brake cable equalizer, to park brake apply lever.
Evenly distributes input force to both the left and right park brake units.
Threaded front park brake cable adjuster is also used to remove slack in park brake cables.
Multiplies and transfers input force to park brake actuator/adjuster.
Uses multiplied input force from apply lever to expand drum brake shoes toward the friction surface of the brake drum.
Threaded park brake actuators/adjusters are also used to control clearance between the drum brake shoes and the friction surface of the brake drum.
Park brake apply input force is received by the park brake lever assembly being applied. The input force is multiplied by the lever assembly, transferred and evenly distributed, through the park brake cables and the park brake cable equalizer, to the left and right park brake apply levers. The park brake apply levers multiply and transfer the apply input force to the park brake actuators/adjusters which expand the drum brake shoes toward the friction surface of the brake drum in order to prevent the rotation of the rear tire and wheel assemblies. The park brake lever assembly releases an applied park brake system when it is released and returned to the at rest position.
Tire and Wheel Assembly-to-Hub/Axle Flange Match-Mounting
Note: After remounting a tire and wheel assembly to a hub/axle flange,
remeasure the tire and wheel assembly on-vehicle runout in order to verify that
the amount of runout has been reduced and brought to within tolerances.
Mark the location of the high spot on the tire and wheel asse ...
Bushing and Mating Shaft Inspection
Note: Proper bushing and corresponding mating shaft inspection should
be performed before replacing the bushing, shaft, and in some cases, the component
which houses the bushing. Thoroughly clean and dry the bushing and shaft surfaces
before inspecting for damage.
