Disc Brake Caliper Assembly
DISASSEMBLING CALIPER
1. Support caliper assembly on upper control arms on shop towels to absorb any hydraulic fluid loss.
2. Place a small piece of wood between the piston and caliper fingers.
3. Carefully depress brake pedal to hydraulically push piston out of bore (brake pedal will fall away when piston has passed bore opening).
4. Prop brake pedal to any position below the first inch of pedal travel -- to prevent loss of brake fluid.
If both front caliper pistons are to be removed:
a. Disconnect flexible brake line at frame bracket after removing piston.
b. Plug brake tube and remove piston from opposite caliper.
WARNING: Under no condition should air pressure be used to remove piston from bore! Personal Injury could result from such
practice.
5. Disconnect brake flexible hose from the caliper.
6. To disassemble, mount caliper assembly in a vise equipped with protective jaws.
CAUTION: Excessive vise pressure will cause bore distortion and binding of piston.
