1. Using a brake drum gauge or equivalent tool, measure the inside diameter of the disc.
   

   Standard inside diameter:

   190 mm (7.48 in.)
   

   Maximum inside diameter:

   191 mm (7.52 in.)
   

   If the inside diameter is more than the maximum, replace the disc.
   

1. Using a ruler, measure the thickness of the shoe lining.
   

   Standard thickness:

   2.5 mm (0.098 in.)
   

   Minimum thickness:

   1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
   

   If the lining thickness is less than the minimum, or if there is severe or uneven wear, replace the brake shoe.
   

   NOTICE:

   Always replace both the right and left parking brake shoes together.

1. Apply chalk to the inside surface of the disc, then grind down the brake shoe lining to fit the disc.
   If the contact between the disc and the brake shoe lining is improper, repair it using a brake shoe grinder or replace the brake shoe.
