Disassembly Procedure
1. Remove the brake caliper from the vehicle.
Caution: Do not place your fingers in front of the piston in an attempt to catch or protect it when applying compressed air. This could result
in serious injury.
Notice: Use only enough air to ease the piston out of the bore. If the piston is blown out, even with the padding, it can be damaged.
2. Place a thin piece of wood in front of the piston in order to prevent damage to the piston when removing it from the caliper bore.
3. Direct compressed air into the brake caliper fluid inlet in order to remove the piston.
4. Remove the dust boot.
