DISASSEMBLY
1. REMOVE CYLINDER BOOTS
Using a screwdriver, remove the cylinder boot from the caliper.
2. REMOVE PISTON
(a) Place a piece of cloth or a similar, object between the pis-
ton and caliper.
(b) Use compressed air to remove the piston from the cylin-
der.
CAUTION:
Do not place your fingers in front of the piston when using
compressed air.
3. REMOVE PISTON SEALS FROM BRAKE CYLINDER
Using a screwdriver, remove the piston seals from the caliper.
4. REMOVE PIN BOOT AND SLIDING BUSHING
Using a screwdriver, pull out sliding pin, pin boot and sliding
bushing.
HINT:
Tape the screwdriver tip before use.
NOTICE:
At the time of reassembly, please refer to the following
item.

INSPECTION
1. MEASURE PAD LINING THICKNESS
Using a ruler, measure the pad lining thickness.
Standard thickness: 12.0 mm (0.472 in.)
Minimum thickness: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
Replace the pad if the pad's thickness is at the minimum or if
it shows signs of uneven wear.
2. MEASURE DISC THICKNESS
(a) Temporarily fasten the disc with the 3 hub nuts.
(b) Using a micrometer, measure the disc thickness.
Standard thickness: 18.0 mm (0.709 in.)
Minimum thickness: 16.0 mm (0.611 in.)
Replace the disc if the thickness of the disc is at the minimum
thickness or less. Replace the disc or grind it on a lathe if it is
scored or is worn unevenly.
3. MEASURE DISC RUNOUT
Using a dial indicator, measure the disc runout at a position 10
mm (0.39 in.) from the outside edge.
Maximum disc runout: 0.1 mm (0.0040 in.)
If the disc's runout is at the maximum value or greater, check the
bearing play is in the axial direction and check the axle hub run-
out (See page SA-84). If the bearing play and axle hub runout
are not abnormal, adjust the disc runout or grind it on an ºOn-
Carº brake lathe.
4. IF NECESSARY, ADJUST DISC RUNOUT
(a) Remove the torque plate from the backing plate.
(b) Remove the hub nuts and the disc. Reinstall the disc ro-
tating 1/5 of a turn from its original position on the hub.
Install and torque the hub nuts.
Torque: 103 N´m (1,050 kgf´cm, 76 ft´lbf)
Remeasure the disc runout. Make a note of the runout
and the disc's position on the hub.
(c) Repeat (b) until the disc has been installed on the 3 re-
maining hub positions.
(d) If the minimum runout recorded in (b) and (c) is less than
0.1 mm (0.0040 in.), install the disc in that position.
(e) If the minimum runout recorded in (b) and (c) is greater
than 0.1 mm (0.0040 in.), replace the disc and repeat step
3.
(f) Install the torque plate and tighten the 2 bolts.
Torque: 103 N´m(1,050 kgf´cm, 76 ft´lbf)

REMOVAL
1. DISCONNECT FLEXIBLE HOSE
Remove the union bolt and gasket from the caliper, then discon-
nect the flexible hose from the caliper. Use a container to catch
brake fluid as it drains out.
Torque: 30 N´m (310 kgf´cm, 22 ft´lbf)
HINT:
At the time of installation, please refer to the following item.
Install the flexible hose lock securely in the lock hole in the cali-
per.
2. REMOVE CALIPER
(a) Hold the sliding pin and loosen the 2 installation bolts.
Torque: 26 N´m (270 kgf´cm, 20 ft´lbf)
(b) Remove the 2 installation bolts.
(c) Remove the caliper from the torque plate.
3. REMOVE 2 BRAKE PADS WITH ANTI- SQUEAL
SHIMS
4. REMOVE 4 PAD SUPPORT PLATES

REPLACEMENT
1. REMOVE REAR WHEEL
2. INSPECT PAD LINING THICKNESS
Check the pad thickness through the caliper inspection hole
and replace pads if not within the specification.
Minimum thickness: 1.0 mm (0.039 in.)
3. REMOVE BRAKE CALIPER
(a) Remove the 2 mounting bolts.
(b) Remove the caliper and suspend it so the hose is not
stretched.
HINT:
Do not disconnect the flexible hose.
4. REMOVE 2 PADS AND 4 ANTI-SQUEAL SHIMS
5. REMOVE 4 PAD SUPPORT PLATES
NOTICE:
The pad support plates can be used again provided that
they have sufficient rebound, no deformation, cracks or
wear, and have had all rust, dirt and foreign particles
cleaned off.
6. CHECK DISC THICKNESS AND RUNOUT
(See page BR-30)
7. INSTALL PAD SUPPORT PLATES
8. INSTALL NEW PADS
NOTICE:
When replacing worn pads, the anti-squeal shims must be
replaced together with the pads.
Install the 4 anti-squeal shims to the pads.
HINT:
Apply disc brake grease to both sides of the inner anti-squeal
shims (See page BR-24).
NOTICE:
Do not allow oil or grease to get on the rubbing face.
9. INSTALL CALIPER
(a) Draw out a small amount of brake fluid from the reservoir.
(b) Press in the pistons with a hammer handle or an equiva-
lent.
HINT:
Always change the pads on one wheel at a time as there
is a possibility of the opposite piston flying out.
If the piston is difficult to push in, loosen the bleeder plug
and push in the piston while letting some fluid escape.
