DISC BRAKE CALIPER - FRONT - SRT-4
REMOVAL
NOTE: Before proceeding, Refer to WARNING/CAUTION.
1. Using a brake pedal holding tool, depress the brake pedal past its first one inch of travel and secure it in this position. This will isolate the master
cylinder from the brake hydraulic system and will not allow the brake fluid to drain out of the master cylinder reservoir when the lines are opened.
2. Raise the vehicle.
3. Remove the front tire and wheel assembly.
4. Remove the banjo bolt connecting the brake hose to the brake caliper (Fig. 62). There are two washers (one on each side of the flex hose fitting)
that will come off with the banjo bolt. Discard the washers.
5. Remove the two brake caliper guide pin bolts (Fig. 62).
6. Remove the disc brake caliper from the disc brake adapter.
DISASSEMBLY
NOTE: Before disassembling the brake caliper, remove it from the vehicle, clean and inspect it.
WARNING: UNDER NO CONDITION SHOULD HIGH PRESSURE AIR EVER BE USED TO REMOVE A PISTON FROM A CALIPER
BORE. PERSONAL INJURY COULD RESULT FROM SUCH A PRACTICE.
CAUTION: Do not use excessive force when clamping caliper in vise. Excessive vise pressure will cause bore distortion.
1. Mount the caliper in a vise equipped with protective jaws.
