For 1990-2009 cars only
Removal Procedure
- Remove the disc brake caliper bolts (1) and (3).
- Using a c-clamp installed to the center of the outer disc brake pad and the back of the caliper, slowly compress the caliper piston into its bore just enough to remove the caliper from the mounting bracket (12).
- Remove the disc brake caliper (15) from the mounting bracket.
- Remove the disc brake pads (9) and (10) from the disc brake caliper bracket.
- Remove the disc brake pad retainers (11) from the disc brake caliper bracket.
- Remove the disc brake caliper bolt boots (4) and (13) from the caliper mounting bracket.
- Lightly wire brush all brake pad contact areas in order to remove any corrosion.
Installation Procedure
- Install the caliper bolt boots (4) and (13) to the disc brake caliper mounting bracket (12).
- Install the disc brake pad retainers (11) to the disc brake caliper bracket.
- Install the disc brake pads (9) and (10) to the disc brake caliper bracket.
- Install the disc brake caliper (15) from the mounting bracket.
- Install the disc brake caliper bolts (1) and (3).
- Apply and release the brake pedal (3/4 stroke) as many times as necessary in order to obtain a firm brake pedal.
Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.
Tighten
Tighten the disc brake caliper bolts to 45 N·m (33 lb ft).
