Disc Brake Caliper: Disassembly

  1. Clean caliper exterior with brake cleaning solvent. Drain residual fluid from caliper and place caliper on a clean working surface.
  2. Remove piston from caliper by applying compressed air to inlet port. Use just enough pressure to ease piston out of bore. Protect piston from damage with folded shop towels. DO NOT  try to catch piston by hand.
  3. Pry dust boot out of bore with screwdriver. DO NOT  scratch bore. Using a small plastic or wooden stick, pry piston seal from bore. See Figure. Remove bleeder screw, sleeves, and bushings.
