REMOVAL
1) Hoist vehicle and remove wheel.
2) Remove caliper pin bolts.
3) Remove E-ring from strut and then remove caliper from caliper
carrier.
NOTE:
Hang removed caliper with a wire hook or the like so as to
prevent brake hose from bending and twisting excessively
or being pulled. Don't operate brake pedal with pads re-
moved.
4) Remove pads.
INSPECTION
Brake Pad
Check pad lining for wear. When wear exceeds limit, replace with
new one.
CAUTION:
Never polish pad lining with sandpaper. If lining is polished
with sandpaper, hard particles of sandpaper will be depos-
ited in lining and may damage disc. When pad lining re-
quires correction, replace it with a new one.
Pad thickness (lining + rim) ªaº
Standard: 15.0 mm (0.590 in.) For SUMITOMO ELECTRIC. . .

rubber grease whose viscosity varies very little even at ±40
C
(±40
F).
