Rear Brake Caliper, Rotor & Pads: Installation

  1. Lubricate both adapter abutments with a liberal amount of Mopar(R) multipurpose grease. Install new inboard pad assembly in caliper, and ensure retainer enters into bore of piston. Remove protective paper from noise suppression gasket. Insert outboard pad into caliper with hold-down spring positioned correctly.
  2. Clean both sides of rotor with alcohol or solvent. Install rotor on hub assembly. Carefully lower caliper over disc, and guide hold-down spring under machined abutment on adapter. Install caliper guide pin bolts, and tighten to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  .
  3. Install wheels. Tighten wheel nuts in crisscross sequence to half torque, then repeat tightening sequence to full torque. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  .
  4. Lower vehicle and operate brake pedal to ensure a firm feel. Road test vehicle and make several stops to wear off any foreign material on brakes and to seat brake pad linings.
