Install the brake caliper piston compressor tool (A) on the caliper body (B).
2.
Press in the piston with the brake caliper piston compressor tool.
3.
Remove the brake caliper piston compressor tool.
4.
Apply a thin coat of M-77 assembly paste (P/N 08798-9010) to the retainer mating surface of the caliper bracket (indicated by the arrows).
5.
Install the pad retainers (A).
NOTE:
The upper and lower pad retainers are different. During installation, make sure the pad retainers are in the proper positions.
If you are replacing the brake pads with new ones, also replace the pad retainers.
6.
Wipe off the excess assembly paste from the retainers. Keep the assembly paste away from the brake disc and the brake pads.
7.
Apply a thin coat of M-77 assembly paste (P/N 08798-9010) to the pad side of the shims (B), the back of the brake pads (C), and the other areas indicated by the arrows.
8.
Wipe off the excess assembly paste from the pad shims and brake pads friction material. Keep grease and assembly paste away from the brake disc and brake pads. Contaminated brake disc or brake pads reduce stopping ability.
9.
Install the brake pads and pad shims correctly with the wear indicator (D) on the upper inside position.
NOTE:
If you are reusing the brake pads, always reinstall the brake pads in their original positions to prevent a temporary loss of braking efficiency.
Be careful not to damage or deform the pad return springs (E). If the pad return springs is damaged or deformed, replace the brake pad as an assembly.
The upper and lower pad return springs are different. During installation, make sure the pad return springs are in the proper positions.
10.
Pivot the caliper body (A) down into position.
11.
Install the flange bolt (B) while holding the caliper pin (C).
Press the brake pedal several times to make sure the brakes work.
NOTE: Engagement 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.
