HYDRAULIC BRAKE AND PARK BRAKE
SYSTEMS
Brake Pads and Caliper
6
NOTE:
Driver's side brake hose connection uses 2 hoses (6 and 9) and a double length banjo bolt (8).
.
Place a clean, tray-type container below the caliper and brake hose assembly to catch brake fluid when the
brake hose and caliper body are separated.
4.
If the caliper will be used again, plug the banjo bolt hole to prevent dirt and debris entering the caliper.
5.
Place a plastic bag over the hose fitting to prevent dirt and debris entering the hose.
6.
Remove the two socket-head slide-pin bolts (7) securing the caliper (2) to its mounting bracket.
7.
Pull the caliper (2) off the mounting bracket and remove the pads.

REAR BRAKE PAD AND CALIPER INSTALLATION
WARNING
• If at any point in this procedure the hydraulic system is opened, the brakes must be bled after the
correct reinstallation of the brake components. Failure to bleed the brakes could result in decreased
braking performance due to air being trapped in the hydraulic system. Use only DOT 5 brake fluid. See
Bleeding the Hydraulic Brake System on page 6-18.
1.
Place and hold the brake pads in the caliper (2) and install the caliper onto its mounting bracket.
See following
NOTE and WARNING.
NOTE:
To help prevent noise, a silicone-based brake lubricant may be applied to the surfaces (on the back side of
the brake pads) that contact the caliper. A thin film may also be applied to the slide-pins. Always follow
lubricant manufacturer’s directions.
WARNING
• To reduce the possibility of diminished brake performance or failure, never use petroleum-based
lubricants on brake system components, and ensure lubricant does not contact friction surfaces of
brake pads or rotors.
2.
Insert the socket-head slide-pin bolts (7) through the caliper (2), mounting bracket and brake pads. Thread the
slide-pin bolts into the mounting bracket and tighten to 32 ft-lb (43 N·m).
