Front Brake Pads: Installation

  1. Clean outside surface of caliper piston boot with denatured alcohol. Slowly compress piston into bore with a "C" clamp, being careful not to cock piston to one side or damage piston boot. Using small plastic or wood tool, lift inner edge of boot next to piston and press out any trapped air. Reposition boot so it lays flat with convolutions in proper position.
  2. Install inner pad, snapping retainer into place in piston. Ensure pad lays flat against piston. Ensure boot is not touching pad. Install outer pad with wear sensor facing downward. Ensure pad lays flat against caliper.
  3. To install remaining components, reverse removal procedure. Tighten bolts to specification. See TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS.
