MC012C-AS00 TRANSAXLE: HYDRAULIC AND PARK BRAKE SYSTEMS
Rear Wheel Brake Drum Installation, Continued:
NOTE: If brake drum installation is difficult, the brake shoes may need to be adjusted vertically in the
mounting slots.
2. Using a torque wrench and a Torx #T-27 driver, or hydraulic brake adjuster (CCI P/N 102169401), gently
rotate the adjuster bolts to increase the clearance between the brake shoe lining and the brake drum
(Figure 6a-16, Page 6a-19). See following NOTE.
NOTE: If the adjusters require more than 65 in-lb (7.3 N·m) of force to rotate, they must be replaced. See
Brake Shoe Adjuster Replacement on page 6a-26.
3. Rotate and gently press the brake drum to ensure that the drum is properly seated.
4. With the brake drum properly seated and secured, use a torque wrench with a Torx #T-27 driver, or
hydraulic brake adjuster (CCI P/N 102169401), and gently adjust the clearance between the brake shoe
lining and brake drum by turning each of the two adjuster bolt heads on the back of the brake cluster plate
as shown (Figure 6a-16, Page 6a-19). See following CAUTION.
∆
CAUTION
• Do not apply more than 65 in-lb (7.3 N·m) of torque to any of the adjuster bolts. Over-
tightening the adjuster bolts could result in damage to the brake cluster components or the
separation of the bolt (4) from the adjuster (3) (Figure 6a-3, Page 6a-4 or Figure 6a-21,
Page 6a-25).
5. Install the wheel and finger-tighten the lug nuts (21) (Figure 6a-21, Page 6a-25).
6. Repeat steps 1 through 5 for the opposite rear wheel as required.
7. Lower the vehicle and finish tightening the lug nuts, using a crisscross pattern, to 55 ft-lb (74.6 N·m).
8. Perform all of the brake system inspections to ensure that both the hydraulic brake system and the park
brake system are adjusted and operating correctly before placing the vehicle into service. See Brake
System Inspection on page 6a-3.

BRAKE CLUSTER ASSEMBLY REPLACEMENT

Read DANGER and WARNING on page 6a-1.
∆
WARNING
• To perform this procedure, the hydraulic system must be opened. As a result, the brakes must
be bled after the correct reinstallation of the brake components. Failure to bleed the brakes
could result in decreased braking performance due to air being trapped in the hydraulic
system. Use only DOT 5 brake fluid. See Bleeding the Hydraulic Brake System on page 6a-33.
• Worn or damaged brake drums must not be machined. Replace as necessary.
• Use only approved replacement brake drums designed for your vehicle. For MC012C-AS00
transaxles, use CC P/N 102264701.

FRONT BRAKE CLUSTER ASSEMBLY REMOVAL

1. Remove front wheel brake drum. See Front Wheel Brake Drum Removal on page 6a-9.
2. Remove the banjo bolt (16) and copper washers (17) from the brake cluster front hose assembly
(Figure 6a-3, Page 6a-4).
