Front Disc Brake Caliper: Reassembly

  1. Install caliper anchor pin bushing. Overlap edges of bushing slightly to fit bushing into seal. After installation, press bushing against seal to remove overlapping. When properly installed, ends of bushing must be butted against each other.
  2. Lubricate new piston seal with brake fluid and install in seal groove. Ensure seal does not become twisted but is firmly seated in groove. Install dust boot on piston.
  3. Position dust boot at bottom of piston. Hold dust boot on piston and pull on seal lip until seal unfolds, allowing lip seal to extend beyond bottom of piston.
  4. While holding dust boot on piston, fit seal lip in caliper bore and push piston into caliper. As piston enters bore, dust boot will refold to its original shape.
  5. To complete reassembly and installation, reverse removal and disassembly procedures.
