Overdrive Brake: Inspection

Clean all components (except discs) with solvent. Dry with compressed air. Inspect flanges, plates and discs for flaking or burnt areas. If disc lining is peeling or discolored, replace discs as necessary.

Using calipers, measure free length of piston return springs. See OVERDRIVE BRAKE PISTON RETURN SPRING SPECIFICATIONS table. Replace return springs that do not measure as specified.
