(Fig. 55). Rubber part of boot extends through rear
opening in bracket. Allow adhesive on boot and bracket
to set up for a minute or two before proceeding.
(4) Position splash shield on caliper bracket. Then
carefully install shield and bracket assembly on axle
tube flange studs.
CAUTION: Be sure the parking brake lever boot is not
displaced when the shield/assembly is installed. If the
boot becomes mispositioned, it will prevent the shield
from seating squarely on the bracket. This will cock the
shield causing it to rub against the rotor after installa-
tion. Inspect the boot and reposition it if necessary.
(5) Apply Mopar Lock N’ Seal (or Loctite 242), to
axle tube stud nuts. Then install and tighten nuts to
43-61 N·m (32-45 ft. lbs.).
(6) Assemble and install cam and lever. Push lever
through boot and seat cam between lip on shield and
ledge on bracket (Fig. 56). Then engage lever in cable
eyelet. Be sure cable notch in lever is facing rearward.
Remove and reposition cam and lever if necessary.
(7) Install parking brakeshoes on splash shield.
Verify positioning of cam and lever, shoes, springs
and holddown clips and pins (Fig. 57).
(8) Verify correct positioning of caliper bracket and
shield (Fig. 58). Caliper opening and ledges should be
to rear as shown.
(9) Install axle shaft, shaft retainer clips and hous-
ing cover. Check lube level and add lubricant if
needed.
(10) Install rotor, caliper, and wheel and tire
assembly. Then adjust parking brakeshoes.
(11) Lower vehicle and verify correct service and
parking brake operation.
