Rear Pads: Installation

  1. Place brake pads in carrier. Using Allen wrench, push piston into caliper while turning it clockwise. Depth of piston in bore of caliper determines clearance of outer pad to rotor.
  2. Swing caliper into position and measure clearance between outer pad and rotor. When clearance is .039" (1.0 mm), brake adjustment is correct. Install NEW self-locking upper mounting bolt. Tighten bolt to 18 ft. lbs. (25 N.m). Reconnect parking brake cable and check parking brake adjustment.
