CALIPER OVERHAUL
1. Remove the caliper. Refer to ”Caliper” in this sec-
tion.
CAUTION : Do not attempt to catch the piston when
attempting to remove the piston with compressed air.
The piston will pop out of its bore with enough force
to damage a hand or fingers.
Important : When removing the caliper piston with com-
pressed air, place some rolled–up shop towels beneath
the caliper to prevent damage to the piston.
2. Apply unlubricated compressed air at the hose inlet
of the caliper.
3. Remove the piston from its bore and remove the
piston dust seal.
4. Remove the inner seal from the bore. Avoid
scratching the bore.
5. Remove the bleeder valve dust cap and the bleeder
valve.
Assembly Procedure
Important : Do not use a hone or any other procedure to
remove material from the caliper bore or the piston.
1. Clean all parts in denatured alcohol or brake fluid.
Dry the parts with unlubricated compressed air and
blow out all passages in the housing and the bleed-
er valve.
2. Inspect the piston and caliper for scoring, nicks, or
corrosion. Replace any components which show
these conditions.

3. Install the bleeder valve and the dust cap.
3. Lubricate a new piston inner seal with brake fluid.
4. Install the piston inner seal into the groove in the
caliper bore.
5. Install the piston dust seal in its groove.
6. Lubricate the piston with brake fluid.
7. Push the piston inward until it is properly seated.
Make sure that the dust seal is in the correct
groove in the piston and the caliper.
8. Reinstall the caliper. Refer to ”Caliper” in this sec-
tion.
9. Bleed the brake system. Refer to Section 4F, Anti–
lock Brake System.

GENERAL DESCRIPTION
AND SYSTEM OPERATION
DISC BRAKE CALIPER ASSEMBLY
The caliper has a single bore and is mounted to the steer-
ing knuckle with two mounting bolts. Hydraulic pressure,
created by applying the brake pedal, is converted by the
caliper to a stopping force. This force acts equally against
the piston and the bottom of the caliper bore to move the
piston outward and to slide the caliper inward, resulting in
a clamping action on the rotor. This clamping action forces
the linings against the rotor, creating friction to stop the ve-
hicle.S Replace all components included in the repair kits
used to service the caliper.
S Lubricate the rubber parts with clean brake fluid to
ease assembly.
S Do not use lubricated shop air on brake parts, as
damage to the rubber components may result.
S If any hydraulic component is removed or discon-
nected, it may be necessary to bleed all or part of
the brake system. Refer to Section 4F, Anti–lock
Brake System.
S Replace the shoes in axle sets only.
S The torque values specified are for dry, unlubri-
cated fasteners.
S Perform the service operations on a clean bench,
free from oily material.

WHEEL CYLINDER
Disassembly Procedure
1. Remove the wheel cylinder assembly from the
backing plate. Refer to ”Wheel Cylinder Assembly”
in this section.
2. Twist off the boots, the pistons, and the seals from
each end of the wheel cylinder.
