Section 14 (Disc Brakes & Drum Brakes): Overhaul

WARNING: This page does not describe the selected car, but rather 46 other vehicles, including the 2001 Pontiac Montana, 2001 Pontiac Aztek, 2001 Oldsmobile Silhouette, 2001 Oldsmobile Bravada, and 2001 GMC Sonoma. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

WARNING: Do not hone master cylinder bore. Honing destroys hardened surface, causing premature piston seal failure. If bore surface is rough or pitted, replace master cylinder.
