Front Brake Caliper & Brake Pads: Installation

NOTE: If new caliper bolts are being installed or if reason for repair is to correct a drag or pull, check caliper bolt length. Correct caliper bolt shank length is 2.61-2.66" (66.4-67.6 mm) and thread length is 0.87" (22 mm). If caliper bolts are too long they will contact inboard pad and cause a partial apply condition.
  1. To install, reverse removal procedure. Apply a light coat of multipurpose grease to caliper sliding surfaces. Lubricate caliper mounting pins and bushings with silicone grease.
  2. Tighten caliper mounting pins to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS  table. Add brake fluid to reservoir. Apply brakes until brake pedal is firm. Check brake fluid level.
