BRAKE HOSES (Check for deterioration or leaks)
NOOSEHA
Inspection of brake hoses and tubing should be included in all
brake service operations.
The hoses should be checked for:
(1) Correct length, severe surface cracking, pulling, scuffing or
worn spots. (If the fabric casing of the hoses is exposed by
cracks or abrasion in the rubber hose cover, the hoses
should be replaced. Eventual deterioration of the hose may
occur, with possible bursting failure.)
(2) Faulty installation, casing twisting or interference with
wheel, tire or chassis.
BRAKE FLUID (Replace) - including the clutch
fluid
NOOSSIA
(1) Check the brake and clutch system for leakage before
replacing brake fluid. Completely drain the brake fluid with
the bleeder screws loosened on each system and refill the
brake and clutch system with new brake fluid.
Specified brake fluid: MOPAR Brake Fluid Part Number
2933249 or equivalent
(2) The reservoir cap must be fully tightened to avoid con-
tamination from foreign matter or moisture.
DO NOT ALLOW PETROLEUM BASE FLUID TO CONTAMI-
NATE THE BRAKE FLUID - SEAL DAMAGE WILL RESULT.
Caution
Take care in handling brake fluid as it is harmful to the eyes
and may also cause damage to painted surfaces.
BALL JOINT, STEERING LINKAGE SEALS AND
DRIVE SHAFT BOOTS (Inspect for grease leaks
and damage)
. NOOSSJA
(1) These components, which are permanently lubricated at
the factory, do not require periodic lubrication. Damaged
seals and boots should be replaced to prevent leakage or
contamination of the grease.
(2) Inspect the dust cover and boots for proper sealing, leakage
and damage. Replace them if defective.
FRONT WHEEL BEARINGS (Inspect for grease
leaks)
NOOSSKE
Inspect for evidence of grease leakage around the hub cap and
the back of the hub. If there is leakage of grease, remove the
hub and inspect its oil seal for damage. Clean the grease off the
hub and bearing, and repack with specified new grease.
Specified grease: MOPAR Multi-mileage Lubricant Part
Number 2525035 or equivalent
