Removal

Front brake line

1.Disconnect the battery negative ( - ) terminal and the service interlock connector.(Refer to Battery Control System - "Auxiliary 12 V Battery - 2WD")(Refer to Battery Control System - "Auxiliary 12 V Battery - 4WD")

2.Remove the reservoir cap (A) and then remove brake fluid from the reservoir tank using a suitable tool.

   

Be careful not to spill brake fluid onto the vehicle or body. If brake fluid leaks, wash off with water and remove with a clean cloth as soon as possible.

   

When opening the tank cap, make sure there is no dust or other foreign substances to contaminate the brake fluid.

3.Remove the front wheel and tires.(Refer to Suspension System - "Wheel")

4.Separate the front wheel speed sensor harness (A) from the brake line bracket.

5.Remove the brake line bracket (A) after removing the bolt.

Tightening torque :8.8 - 13.7 N·m (0.9 - 1.4 kgf·m, 6.5 - 10.1 lb·ft)

6.Remove the brake line flare nut (B) to separate the brake line after removing the brake hose clip (A).

Tightening torque :13.7 - 16.7 N·m (1.4 - 1.7 kgf·m, 10.1 - 12.3 lb·ft)

   

• If the extension wrench (A) is used to tighten the flare nut, refer to the below formula and calculate the true torque.

• True torque = Torque wrench dial reading

• True torque = [(A + B) / A] × Torque wrench reading

7.Remove the brake hose (A) after removing the bolt.

Tightening torque : 24.5 - 34.3 N·m (2.5 - 3.5 kgf·m, 18.1 - 25.3 lb·ft)

   

Do not reuse the washer (B) when installing the brake hose.

Rear Brake Line

1.Disconnect the battery negative ( - ) terminal and the service interlock connector.(Refer to Battery Control System - "Auxiliary 12 V Battery - 2WD")(Refer to Battery Control System - "Auxiliary 12 V Battery - 4WD")

2.Remove the reservoir cap (A) and then remove brake fluid from the reservoir tank using a suitable tool.

   

Be careful not to spill brake fluid onto the vehicle or body. If brake fluid leaks, wash off with water and remove with a clean cloth as soon as possible.

   

When opening the tank cap, make sure there is no dust or other foreign substances to contaminate the brake fluid.

3.Remove the rear wheel and tires.(Refer to Suspension System - "Wheel")

4.Remove the brake line flare nut (B) to separate the brake line after removing the brake hose clip (A).

Tightening torque :13.7 - 16.7 N·m (1.4 - 1.7 kgf·m, 10.1 - 12.3 lb·ft)

   

• If the extension wrench (A) is used to tighten the flare nut, refer to the below formula and calculate the true torque.

• True torque = Torque wrench dial reading

• True torque = [(A + B) / A] × Torque wrench reading

5.Remove the brake hose (A) after removing the bolt.

Tightening torque :24.5 - 34.3 N·m (2.5 - 3.5 kgf·m, 18.1 - 25.3 lb·ft)

   

Do not reuse the washer (B) when installing the brake hose.

Installation

1.Install in the reverse order of removal.

   

Check the brake fluid level sensor connector (A) is securely installed. Incorrect installation may cause the brake warning lamp to illuminate.

2.Fill the brake reservoir with brake fluid and perform air bleeding.(Refer to Brake System - "Brake Bleeding Procedures")

Inspection

1.Check the brake line and hose for crack or corrosion.

2.Check the line flare nuts for damage.
