For 1990-2009 cars

Important:

• | Install all new components included in the repair kit used to service this caliper.

• | Lubricate the rubber parts using clean brake fluid in order to ease assembly.

• | Do not use lubricated compressed air on brake parts. Damage to rubber components may result.

• | If you remove or disconnect any hydraulic component, bleed all or part of the brake system.

• | Replace the shoe and linings in axle sets only.

• | The tightening specifications are for dry, unlubricated fasteners.

• | Perform all service operations on a clean bench, free from all mineral oil materials.

This caliper has a single bore. The caliper is mounted to the steering knuckle with two mounting bolts. Applying the brake pedal creates hydraulic pressure. The caliper converts the hydraulic pressure to a stopping force. This force acts equally against the caliper piston and the bottom of the caliper bore in order to perform the following functions:

• | Move the piston outward.

• | Move (slide) the caliper inward.

This results in a clamping action on the rotor. The clamping action forces the linings against the rotor, creating friction in order to stop the vehicle.
