   Parking brake lining thickness:
   | Standard: | 3.4 mm (0.133 in.)
   | Service limit: | 1.0 mm (0.04 in.)

1. If the parking brake lining thickness is less than the service limit, replace all the parking brake shoes as a set.

1. Check the hub (C) for smooth operation. If it requires servicing, replace the hub bearing unit.

1. Measure the inside diameter of the parking brake drum with inside vernier calipers.

   Parking brake drum inside diameter:
   | Standard: | 189.9−190.0 mm (7.476−7.480 in.)
   | Service limit: | 191.0 mm (7.520 in.)

1. If the inside diameter of the parking brake drum is more than service limit, replace the brake disc/drum.
