on these components. Remove the brake shoes, and place a small piece of wood between the piston and caliper fingers.
2. Carefully depress the brake pedal to hydraulically push piston out of its bore. Once completed, apply and hold down the brake pedal to any
position beyond the first inch of pedal travel using a brake pedal holding tool. This will prevent the fluid in the master cylinder reservoir from
completely draining out.
3. Disconnect the brake fluid flex hose from the caliper assembly and remove it from the vehicle.
CALIPER SEAL REMOVAL
CAUTION: Do not use excessive force when clamping caliper in vise. Excessive vise pressure will cause bore distortion.
1. To disassemble the caliper, mount it in a vise equipped with protective jaws.
2. Remove the piston dust boot from the caliper and discard (Fig. 76).
NOTE: Do not use a screw driver or other metal tool for seal removal. Using such tools can scratch the bore or leave burrs on the seal groove
edges.
