Lining Replacement: Installation

NOTE: When installing new shoe and lining assemblies, it will be necessary to install new positioners, inner bushings, and outer bushings.

Slowly push piston back into bore until bottomed. Watch for possible reservoir overflow. Install new inner guide pin bushings in caliper with flanged end on inboard side. Compress flanges of outboard bushing with fingers and work into position in hole from outboard side of caliper. Slide new shoe and lining assemblies into position in adapter and caliper. Make sure metal portion of shoe is fully in recess of caliper and adapter. Holding outboard lining in position, carefully slide caliper down into position in adapter and over disc. Align guide pin holes of adapter with inboard and outboard shoes. Install new positioners over guide pins with open ends toward outside and with stamped arrows pointing upwards. Install assembled guide pins and thread pin into adapter. Tighten to specifications. Be sure tabs of positioners are over machined surfaces of caliper. Pump pedal several times until a firm pedal is obtained.
