Disc Pads: Installation
- Using a cylinder brush, clean guide surface and support surface in caliper. Siphon sufficient fluid from master cylinder reservoir to prevent overflowing. Press pistons to bottom of bores.
- On rear calipers, ensure machined position of piston face makes a 20 degree angle with caliper wall. See Fig 1 . Rotate piston with tool (341050), if necessary.
- On ATE front calipers, install disc pads, shims (if required), cross spring and retaining pins. After installation, depress brake pedal several times to seat pads.
- On Girling calipers, adjust shoulders of pistons so that guards are located at machined shoulders of piston. If necessary, use guard as adjusting template.
- Install pads, cross spring, and retaining pins. Replace fastener, bending straight side. After installation, depress pedal several times to seat pads.
