group of the service manual for the installation pro-
cedure.
(13) Install wheel and tire.
(14) Tighten the wheel mounting nuts in the
proper sequence until all nuts are torqued to half the
specified torque. Then repeat the tightening sequence
to the full specified torque of 129 N·m (95 ft. lbs.).
(15) Lower vehicle.
(16) Apply and release the park brake pedal one
time. This will seat and correctly adjust the park
brake cables.
CAUTION: Before
moving
vehicle,
pump
brake
pedal several times to ensure the vehicle has a firm
enough pedal to stop the vehicle.
(17) Road test the vehicle to ensure proper func-
tion of the vehicle’s brake system.
PARK BRAKE CABLE ADJUSTMENT
The park brake cables on this vehicle have an
automatic self adjuster built into the park brake
pedal mechanism. When the foot operated park brake
pedal is in its released (upward most) position, a
clock spring automatically adjusts the park brake
cables. The park brake cables are adjusted (ten-
sioned) just enough to remove all the slack from the
cables. The automatic adjuster system will not over
adjust the cables causing rear brake drag.
Due to the automatic adjust feature of the park
brake pedal, adjustment of the parking brake cables
on these vehicles relies on proper drum brake and
park brake shoe adjustment. See Rear Brake Adjust-
ment and Park Brake Shoe Adjustment in the Ser-
vice Adjustments Section in this group of the service
manual.
When the park brake pedal is applied the self
adjuster is by-passed and the pedal operates nor-
mally to engage the park brakes.
When a service procedure needs to be performed on
the park brake pedal or the park brake cables, the
automatic self adjuster can be manually locked out
by the service technician.
PROPORTIONING VALVE (HEIGHT SENSING)
Proportioning valve actuator adjustment will be
required if there is a complaint of premature rear
wheel lockup and the front and rear brake shoe lin-
ings checked OK during inspection, the height sens-
ing proportioning valve required replacement, or
there is a complaint of excessive pedal effort and the
vacuum booster and brake pedal checked OK. Make
sure the proportioning valve and the mounting
bracket are firmly attached to the vehicle. Then, pro-
ceed with the following procedure to perform the
adjustment of the actuator.
(1) Raise vehicle. Vehicle is to be raised and sup-
ported on jackstands or with a frame contact type
hoist so the rear suspension of the vehicle is hanging
free. See hoisting in the Lubrication And Mainte-
nance section of this service manual.
(2) Remove rear wheels/tires.
(3) Using an appropriate jack, support the rear
axle prior to the removal of the track bar and shock
absorber bolts from the rear axle.
(4) Unbolt the track bar from the rear axle.
(5) Unbolt both shock absorbers from the rear
axle.
(6) Loosen (do not remove) both of the leaf spring
to front spring hanger pivot bolts.
NOTE: When lowering the rear axle be sure that the
leaf springs do not come in contact with the hoist
limiting the downward movement of the axle. If this
occurs an improper adjustment of the actuator may
result.
(7) Lower the rear axle so it is at its farthest point
of downward movement.
(8) Loosen the adjustment nut (Fig. 203) on the
actuator.
(9) Be sure the hooked end of the actuator is cor-
rectly (fully) seated in the clip on the proportioning
valve lever and that the clip is correctly positioned
on the lever of the proportioning valve.
(10) Pull the housing of the proportioning valve
actuator toward the spring hanger (Fig. 203) until
the lever on the proportioning valve bottoms on the
body of the proportioning valve. Hold the propor-
tioning valve actuator in this position while
tightening the adjustment nut (Fig. 203) to a
torque of 5 N·m (45 in. lbs.). Proportioning
valve adjustment is now complete.
(11) Install shock absorbers and track bar on rear
axle. Do not tighten the mounting bolts for any
of the loosened suspension components at this
time.
(12) Install the wheel/tires.
