Rear Brake Pad Inspection and Replacement: Inspection
- Raise the rear of the vehicle, and support it with safety stands in the proper locations (see LIFT AND SUPPORT POINTS ).
- Remove the rear wheels.
- Check the thickness (A) of the inner pad (B) and outer pad (C). Do not include the thickness of the backing plate.
Brake pad thickness:
Standard: 8.9-9.1 mm (0.35-0.36 in.)
Service limit: 1.6 mm (0.06 in.)
- If the brake pad thickness is less than the service limit, replace the rear brake pads as a set.
- Clean the mating surfaces of the brake disc and the inside of the wheel, then install the rear wheels.
