Sidekick JS 2D Soft Top 2WD L4-1.6L (1997)
Brake Master Cylinder: Description and Operation
GENERAL DESCRIPTION
The master cylinder has two pistons and three piston cups. Its hydraulic pressure is produced in the primary ("a") and secondary ("b") chambers. The
hydraulic pressure produced in the primary chamber ("a") acts on the rear wheel brakes (left and right). Also, the hydraulic pressure produced in the
secondary chamber ("b") acts on the front wheel brakes (left and right).
NOTE: Replace all components included in repair kits to service this master cylinder. Lubricate rubber parts with clean, fresh brake fluid to ease
assembly. Do not use lubricated shop air on brake parts as damage to rubber components may result. If any hydraulic component is removed or brake
line disconnected, bleed the brake system. The torque values specified are for dry, unlubricated fasteners.
