TORQUE SPECIFICATIONS
| CAUTION | When the brake pads are separated from the brake caliper, new brake pads must be installed. The brake pads are one-time use only. Leaving the residual adhesive will increase the taper wear leading to brake noise, drag and roughness. |
The brake pads have an adhesive backing that adheres to the brake caliper to reduce brake shudder and noise. Use the brake parts cleaner to remove the residues of the adhesive on the caliper pistons before installing the new pads.
The brake caliper is mounted to the brake caliper anchor plate, which is bolted to the wheel knuckle. The brake caliper anchor plate locating and guide pins allow the dual piston brake caliper to move as the brake pads wear.
The brake disc is a ventilated full-cast design. The brake disc is removed and installed by removing the brake caliper and anchor plate as an assembly.
The brake disc shield is mounted to the front wheel knuckle and is held in place by 3 screws. It protects the front wheel bearings and inner surface of the brake disc from damaging road debris.
The brake pads are housed in the brake caliper anchor plate assembly and are of a non-asbestos composition.
