With Rear Anti-Lock Brakes
Brake System, With Rear Wheel Anti-Lock Brakes:
DESCRIPTION
The standard dual brake system is split front and rear with the front brakes comprising one circuit and the rear anti-lock brakes, the other circuit.
OPERATION
The brake pedal is connected to the brake master cylinder. When the brake pedal is depressed, brake fluid is pushed from the master cylinder through the metal tubing and flexible hoses to the rear wheel cylinders or the optional rear disc brake caliper. The brake fluid enters the rear wheel cylinder or the optional rear disc brake caliper piston pushing outward against the brake shoe and lining. The brake shoe and lining press against the braking surface on the brake drum or the optional rear disc brake rotor. The front disc brake caliper pistons are forced outward against the brake shoe and lining, and contact the braking surface of the front disc brake hub and rotor. When the brake pedal is released, the pressure is relieved, returning the front disc brake caliper pistons and the Brake Pads to the unapplied position.
