Follow the instructions and patterns shown in Section Check tiresfor uneven wear or damage. If irregular or premature wear is apparent, check wheel alignment. Also, check damaged wheels. for See "Tires" in the Index more information. for 14. DRIVE AXLE SERVICE - Check readfront axle fluid level and add as needed. Check constant velocity joints and axle sealsfor leaking. Locking Differential - Drain fluid at first oil change and refill. Check fluid level and add as needed at subsequent oil changes. In dusty areasor trailer towing applications, drain fluid at every 15,000 miles (24 135 kilometers) and refill.? Standard Differential -Check fluid level and addas needed at every oil change. In dusty areas or trailer towing applications, drain fluid every15,000 miles (24 135 kilometers) and refill.? 15. BRAKE SYSTEM INSPECTION- When the engine oil is changed, inspect the lines and hoses proper hookup, binding, leaks, cracks, for chafing, etc. Check the parking brake adjustment, and the fluid level worn disc brake pads the master cylinder. low fluid level can indicate A which may need to be serviced.? When the wheels are removedfor rotation, inspect disc brake pads for wear and rotorsfor surface condition. Also inspect drum brake linings for wear and cracks. Inspect other brake parts, including drums, wheel cylinders, parking brake, etc. at the same time. Inspect brakes more often if driving habits or conditions result in frequent braking. -f A fluid loss in these systems may indicate a problem. Have them inspected and repaired at once. 7-9

TIRE
AND
WHEEL
ROTATION
AND
INSPECTION
-
For
proper
wear
and
maximum
tire
life, rotate
tires
at
the
first
6,000
miles
(10
000
kilometers)
for
Schedule
I or
7,500
miles
(12
500
kilometers)
for Schedule I1
and
then
every
15,000
miles
(25
000
kilometers)
thereafter.
Follow
the
instructions
and
patterns
shown
in
Section
6.
Check
tires for uneven
wear or damage. If irregular
or
premature
wear
is
apparent,
check
wheel
alignment.
Also,
check
for damaged
wheels.
See
“Tires”
in
the
Index
for more
information.
14.
DRIVE
AXLE
SERVICE
-
Check readfront axle
fluid
level
and
add
as
needed.
Check
constant
velocity
joints and
axle
seals for leaking.
Locking
Differential
-
Drain
fluid
at first oil
change
and
refill.
Check fluid level
and
add
as
needed
at
subsequent
oil
changes.
In
dusty
areasor trailer
towing
applications,
drain
fluid
at
every
15,000
miles (24
135
kilometers)
and

INSPECTION
-
When
the
engine

for proper
hookup,
binding,
leaks,
cracks,
chafing,
etc.
Check
the
parking
brake
adjustment,
and
the
fluid
level
the
master
cylinder. A low
fluid
level
can
indicate
worn
disc
brake
pads
which
may
need
to
be
serviced.?
When
the
wheels
are
removed for rotation,
inspect
disc
brake
pads
for
wear
and
rotors for surface
condition.
Also
inspect
drum
brake
linings
for wear
and
cracks.
Inspect
other
brake
parts,
including
drums,
wheel
cylinders,
parking
brake,
etc.
at
the
same
time.
Inspect
brakes
more
often
if
driving
habits
or
conditions
result
in
frequent
braking.
-f
A
fluid
loss
in
these
systems
may
indicate
a
problem.
Have
them
inspected
and
repaired
at
once.
