Rear

Observe the following precautions when servicing the rear disc brake system.
- Keep grease or any other foreign material off lining surfaces and braking surfaces of rear disc brake rotor and external surfaces of axle flange during service operation. In handling rear disc brake rotor and rear disc brake caliper, avoid deformation, nicking or scratching of rear brake pads and linings and rear disc brake rotors
- If a rear disc brake piston is removed for any reason, replace piston seal and dust boot. Be careful not to damage rear disc brake piston; protect it from contact with any metal or sharp-edged objects.
- Do not attempt to clean or restore oil or grease-soaked rear brake pads and linings. When contaminated linings are found, replace rear brake pads and linings in complete axle sets and wipe rear disc brake rotor braking surfaces clean.
- Before installing brake rotor, thoroughly clean all rust and dirt from the hub surface that contacts the rotor, the rotor surface that contacts the hub and the rotor surface that contact the wheel.
- Install the LH and RH rear disc brake caliper on the correct side of the vehicle to be sure bleeder screw is in the topmost position for proper purging of air from the rear brake system during bleeding.
- After any service, pump the brake pedal to obtain a firm brake pedal before moving the vehicle.
