  1. Carefully clean rust and corrosion from caliper machined surfaces using a wire brush. DO NOT use wire brush in caliper bores. Clean all components with isopropyl alcohol and dry with compressed air.
  2. Inspect caliper 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.
