1. Clean rotor mounting face of hub and bearing (1) to remove any dirt or corrosion.
2. Install brake rotor (2) over hub and bearing (1).See: Brake Rotor - Installation
CAUTION: If the brake rotor or brake pads are being replaced, the rear caliper piston must be seated (bottomed) to compensate for the
new brake rotor or lining. Because the parking brake self-adjuster mechanism is attached to the piston, a special seating method is
required. The only acceptable method is by rotating the piston back into the bore using Retractor, Special Tool 8807, as described below.
Any other seating method will damage the self-adjuster mechanism.
