INSTALLATION
1. If not already performed, completely retract the caliper piston back into the piston bore of the caliper. Use a C-clamp to retract the piston. Place a
wood block over the piston before installing the C-clamp to avoid damaging the piston.
2. Slide the outboard brake pad onto the caliper. Be sure the retaining clip is squarely seated in the depressed areas on the caliper beyond the raised
retaining bead.
CAUTION: Use care when installing the caliper onto the disc brake adapter to avoid damaging the guide pin boots.
3. Install the disc brake caliper with outboard brake pad attached over the inboard brake pad and rotor, onto the brake caliper adapter bracket.
CAUTION: When installing the caliper guide pin bolts (2, 3) make sure that the one (3) that has a special sleeve on the end is installed in the
upper mounting hole.
4. Align the caliper guide pin bolt holes with the adapter bracket. Install the lower (2) and upper (with special sleeve) (3) caliper guide pin bolts.
Tighten the guide pin bolts to 43 Nm (32 ft. lbs.).
