DRUM CHECK

1. Measure the thickness of the brake lining at

several places.

Standard value: 2.8 mm
Limit: 1.0 mm

2. If the thickness of the brake lining is below the

limit, replace the shoe and lining assemblies on
both sides of the vehicle. Never replace only one
side.

3. Measure the inside diameter of the brake disc in

two places or more.

Standard value: 168.0 mm
Limit: 169.0 mm

4. If the inside diameter exceeds the limit, or if it is

excessively worn on one side, replace the brake
disc.
