DESCRIPTION - BASE BRAKE SYSTEM
The base brake system consists of the following
components:
• Brake pedal
• Brake lamp switch
• Power brake booster
• Master cylinder
• Proportioning valves (2) (on non-ABS vehicles
only)
• Brake tubes and hoses
• Disc brakes (front)
• Disc brakes (rear) (optional)
• Drum brakes (rear)
• Parking brake
The hydraulic brake system is diagonally split on
both the non-antilock and antilock braking systems.
This means the left front and right rear brakes are
on one hydraulic circuit and the right front and left
rear are on the other.
Front disc brakes control the braking of the front
wheels; rear braking is controlled by rear drum
brakes as standard equipment. Rear disc brakes and
an antilock brake system (ABS) are optional.
Vehicles equipped with the optional antilock brake
system (ABS) use a system designated Mark 20e.
This system shares most base brake hardware used
on vehicles without ABS. A vehicle equipped with
ABS, however, uses a different master cylinder and
brake tubes. Also included in the ABS system is an
integrated control unit (ICU) and four wheel speed
sensors. All vehicles with ABS come standard with
four-wheel-disc brakes. For more information on ABS
(Refer to 5 - BRAKES - ABS - DESCRIPTION).
The parking brake system consists of a hand-oper-
ated lever mounted between the front seats, two
parking brake cables and parking brake shoes at
each rear wheel. Only vehicles with rear disc brakes
receive separate parking brake shoes. Vehicles with
rear drum brakes utilize the service brakes as the
parking brake shoes.
OPERATION - BASE BRAKE SYSTEM
When a vehicle needs to be stopped, the driver
applies the brake pedal. The brake pedal pushes the
input rod of the power brake booster into the booster.
The booster uses vacuum to ease pedal effort as force
is transferred through the booster to the master cyl-
inder. The booster’s output rod pushes in the master
cylinder’s primary and secondary pistons applying
hydraulic pressure through the proportioning valves
(non-ABS - rear only) and chassis brake tubes to the
brakes at each tire and wheel assembly.
The parking brakes are hand-operated. When
applied, the parking brake lever pulls on cables that
actuate brake shoes at each rear wheel. The parking
brake lever has an automatic-adjusting feature that
takes up any excessive slack in the parking brake
cable system.
WARNING
WARNING: DUST AND DIRT ACCUMULATING ON
BRAKE PARTS DURING NORMAL USE MAY CON-
TAIN ASBESTOS FIBERS FROM PRODUCTION OR
AFTERMARKET
BRAKE
LININGS.
BREATHING
EXCESSIVE
CONCENTRATIONS
OF
ASBESTOS
FIBERS CAN CAUSE SERIOUS BODILY HARM.
EXERCISE
CARE
WHEN
SERVICING
BRAKE
PARTS. DO NOT SAND OR GRIND BRAKE LINING
UNLESS EQUIPMENT USED IS DESIGNED TO CON-
TAIN THE DUST RESIDUE. DO NOT CLEAN BRAKE
PARTS
WITH
COMPRESSED AIR
OR
BY DRY
BRUSHING. CLEANING SHOULD BE DONE BY
DAMPENING THE BRAKE COMPONENTS WITH A
FINE MIST OF WATER, THEN WIPING THE BRAKE
COMPONENTS CLEAN WITH A DAMPENED CLOTH.
DISPOSE OF CLOTH AND ALL RESIDUE CONTAIN-
ING ASBESTOS FIBERS IN AN IMPERMEABLE
CONTAINER WITH THE APPROPRIATE LABEL. FOL-
LOW PRACTICES PRESCRIBED BY THE OCCUPA-
TIONAL SAFETY AND HEALTH ADMINISTRATION
(OSHA) AND THE ENVIRONMENTAL PROTECTION
AGENCY (EPA) FOR THE HANDLING, PROCESSING,
AND DISPOSING OF DUST OR DEBRIS THAT MAY
CONTAIN ASBESTOS FIBERS.
CAUTION
CAUTION: Use only Mopar
T
brake fluid or an equiv-
alent from a tightly sealed container. Brake fluid
must conform to DOT 3 specifications. Do not use
petroleum-based fluid because seal damage in the
brake system will result.
CAUTION: Brake fluid will damage painted surfaces.
If brake fluid is spilled on any painted surfaces,
wash it off immediately with water.
CAUTION: Never use gasoline, kerosene, alcohol,
motor oil, transmission fluid, or any fluid containing
mineral oil to clean system components. These flu-
ids damage rubber cups and seals.
CAUTION: During service procedures, grease or
any other foreign material must be kept off the cal-
iper assembly, brake linings, brake rotor and exter-
nal surfaces of the hub.

CAUTION: When handling the brake rotor and cali-
per, be careful to avoid damaging the brake rotor
and caliper, and scratching or nicking the brake
shoe lining.
