Caliper Installation

Fig. 1 Exploded View Of PBR Dual Piston Front Caliper:

1. Ensure guiding surfaces on shoe and lining assemblies and mounting bracket are seated correctly, then position caliper over rotor and onto mounting bracket.
2. Press caliper housing downward to compress bias springs (12), Fig. 1, then install new retainer pin and circlip. Two sets of retainer pins are available for service, one for base calipers and one for heavy duty. Since the circlip grooves are cut in different positions, ensure the correct retainer pin is used.
3. If caliper was overhauled, reconnect inlet fitting using new gaskets, then bleed brake system as required.
4. Reinstall wheel and tire assembly, then lower vehicle.
5. Fill master cylinder to proper level, then pump brake pedal firmly and slowly three times to bring pads into contact with brake rotor.
