Installing Anti-Rattle Clip:

1. Place a new anti-rattle clip on the lower end of the inner pad. Be sure the tabs on the clip are positioned properly and the clip is fully seated.

Anti-Rattle Clip Position:

2. Position the inner pad and anti-rattle clip in the pad abutment with the anti-rattle clip tab against the pad abutment and the loop-type spring away from the rotor. Compress the anti-rattle clip and slide the upper end of the pad in position.

3. Install the outer pad. Crimp or bend outer pad tabs to prevent pads from rattling in caliper.

4. Install caliper on the spindle. Make sure the mounting surfaces are free of dirt and lubricate the caliper grooves with disc brake caliper grease.

Caliper Pin Installation:

5. Position pin with the pin retention tabs oriented adjacent to the spindle groove.

NOTE: Do not use the bolt and nut with the new pin.

6. Tap the pin on the outboard end with a hammer. Continue tapping the pin inward until the retention tabs on the sides of the pin contact the spindle face. Repeat procedure for the lower pin.

Correct Caliper Pin Installation:

CAUTION: During the installation procedure do not allow the tabs of the caliper pin to be tapped too far into the spindle groove. If this happens it will be necessary to tap the other end of the caliper pin until the tabs snap into place. The tabs on each end of the caliper pin must be free to catch on the spindle flanks.

7. If removed, install the brake hose to the caliper and perform brake bleeding procedures.

Caliper Inlet Block:

8. Install the wheel and tire assembly.

9. Lower the vehicle, check the brake fluid level and fill as necessary. Check brakes for proper operation.
