PARKING BRAKE LINING AND BRAKE DRUM 
CHECK

1. Measure the thickness of the brake lining at several places.

Standard value: 2.8 mm (0.11 inch)
Minimum Limit: 1.0 mm (0.04 inch)

2. If the thickness of the brake lining is below the limit, replace 

the shoe 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 (6.61 inches)
Limit: 169.0 mm (6.65 inches)

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

worn on one side, replace the brake disc.

FRONT AXLE

26-2

GENERAL DESCRIPTION

M1261000100370

The front axle consists of front hubs, knuckles, wheel 
bearings and drive shafts, and has the following fea-
tures:

• The wheel bearing incorporates double-row 

angular contact ball bearing <2.4L>,  a unit ball 
bearing (double-row angular contact ball bearing) 
<3.8L>for reduced friction.

• The front wheel hub assembly combines the hub, 

wheel bearing, housing, and oil seal in a single 
unit for fewer parts, better durability, improved 
assembly precision, and better structural organi-
zation. <3.8L>

• The driveshaft incorporates BJ-TJ type constant 

velocity joints <2.4L> and BJ-PTJ type constant 
velocity joints <3.8L> with high transmission effi-
ciency for low vibration and noise.

• Due to the use of the inner shaft and bracket 

assembly, the right and left drive shafts are 
approximately the same in length. This reduces 
noise, vibration and torque steer.<3.8L-RH>

• The dynamic damper is mounted on the LH drive-

shaft <2.4L, 3.8L> and on the RH driveshaft 
<2.4L>  to reduce differential gear noise.

• ABS rotor for detecting the wheel speed is 

press-fitted to the BJ.

NOTE:

TJ: Tripod Joint

PTJ: Pillow Tripod Joint

BJ: Birfield Joint
