2. Using a dial indicator, check runout.
CAUTION:
Make sure that wheel bearing axi al end play is within the
specifications before measuring runout. Refer to FAX-6," On-Vehicle Inspection and Service " .
3. If runout is outside the limit, find the minimum runout point by shifting the mounting positions of disc rotor and wheel hub by
one hole.
4. If runout is still out of the specific ation, grind rotor on-car using Tool until runout is within the specified limit.
Thickness Inspection Using a micrometer, check thickness of disc rotor. If thickness is out-
side the specifications, replace disc rotor.
ASSEMBLY CAUTION:
When assembling, use only specified lubricant.

2. Apply rubber grease (CL25VF) or polyglycol ether based lubri- cant (AD22VK) to piston boot and apply brake fluid to piston.
Cover the piston end with piston boot, and install cylinder-side
lip on piston boot properly into groove on cylinder body. Runout limit
[measured at 10.0 mm (0.394
in) inside the disc edge] : Refer to
