Front Disc Brake Caliper: Reassembly
- Clean the pistons and caliper bores with brake fluid and inspect for wear or damage. Apply silicone grease to new piston seals, then install piston seals in cylinder grooves. Apply silicone grease to new piston boots, then install piston boots in cylinder grooves.
- Lubricate caliper cylinders and pistons with brake fluid, then install pistons in cylinders with the dished end facing in. Reinstall caliper in reverse order of removal. Always reinstall brake pads in their original positions to prevent loss of braking efficiency. Fill brake reservoir up and bleed brake system. See BLEEDING BRAKE SYSTEM under BLEEDING.
