Cleaning & Inspection

  1. Clean rust and corrosion from caliper machined surfaces with a wire brush, being careful not to get wire brush in cylinder bores. Clean all components with denatured alcohol and dry with compressed air.
  2. Inspect cylinder bore, seal grooves, and boot grooves for wear or damage. If bores are scored, corroded or worn, replace caliper. Replace anti-rattle clip, caliper support spring and key.
