Disc Brake Caliper & Pads: Installation
- To install, reverse removal procedure. Ensure that outer shoe torque buttons are solidly seated in caliper cut-outs. Install caliper pin until retention tabs on side of pin contact spindle face.
- Do not allow tabs of caliper pin to to be tapped in too far into spindle groove. If this happens, it will be necessary to tap the other end of pin until tabs snap into place. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure.
- Install new anti-rattle clip on lower end of inner pad. Place lower end of pad in spindle, with clip against pad, and clip loop away from rotor. Slide upper end of pad into position. Be sure clip is still in position.
- With piston fully bottomed in cylinder bore, position outer pad on caliper and press pad tabs into place. If pad cannot be pressed into place by hand, use a large "C" clamp. To complete installation, reverse removal procedure. Bleed brake system if caliper was removed. Apply brakes until a firm pedal is obtained.
