12. Apply a thin coat of M-77 assembly paste (PIN 08798-9010) to the pad sides of shims (A), the back of the brake pads (B), and to the other areas
indicated by the arrows.
Wipe excess paste off the pad shim and brake pads. Contaminated brake discs and pads reduce stopping ability Keep assembly paste off the brake
discs and pad material.
13. Install the brake pads and pad shims correctly.
Install the brake pads with the wear indicator (C) on the inside. The wear indicator should be on the top ofthe pad.
If you are reusing the pads, always reinstall the brake pads in their original positions to prevent a momentary loss of braking efficiency.
14. Push in the piston (B) so the caliper will fit over the brake pads. Check the brake fluid level. The brake fluid may overflow if the reservoir is too
full. Make sure the piston boot is in position to prevent damaging it when pivoting the caliper down.
15. Pivot the caliper (C) down into position. Install the flange bolt (D), and tighten it to the specified torque while holding the pin A with a wrench
being careful not to damage the pin boot.
16. Install the brake hose mounting bolt (A), and tighten it to the specified torque.
17. Press the brake pedal several times to make sure the brakes work.
NOTE: Engagement of the brake may require a greater pedal stroke immediately after the brake pads have been replaced as a set. Several
applications of the brake pedal will restore the normal pedal stroke.
18. Add brake fluid as needed.
19. After installation, check for leaks at hose and line joints or connections, and retighten if necessary. Then test-drive the vehicle.
