Brake Caliper: Service and Repair
Inspection
THIS ARTICLE INCLUDES CHANGES MADE BY TSB #83-8-12 DATED APRIL 1983
1. The caliper piston must be "bottomed out" when replacing pad and lining assemblies with new parts. "Bottom out" the caliper piston with an eight
inch c-clamp using a worn out inner pad or a block of wood to push against the piston. Never attempt to "bottom out" piston with outer pad
installed.
Installing Anti-Rattle Clip
2. Place a new anti-rattle clip on the lower end of the inner pad. Be sure the tabs on the clip are positioned properly and the clip is fully seated.
Installing Inner Shoe And Anti-Rattle Clip
3. Position the inner pad and anti-rattle clip in the pad abutment with the anti-rattle clip tab against the pad abutment and the loop-type spring away
from the rotor. Compress the anti-rattle clip and slide the upper end of the pad in position.
