Rear
REMOVAL1. Raise the vehicle.
2. Remove both rear tire and wheel assemblies from vehicle.
3. Begin on one side of the vehicle.
4. Remove the two caliper guide pin bolts.
Caliper Removal/Installation:
5. Remove the caliper assembly from the brake adapter by first rotating the top of the caliper away from the rotor, and then lifting the caliper assembly off the machined abutment on the adapter.
Storing Caliper:
6. Hang the brake caliper from rear strut using wire or cord to prevent the weight of the caliper from damaging the brake hose.
7. Remove the outboard brake shoe from the caliper by prying the brake shoe retaining clip over the raised area on the caliper. Then slide the brake shoe down and off of the brake caliper.
Removing Installing Inboard Brake Shoe:
8. Pull the inboard brake shoe away from caliper piston until the retaining clip is free from the cavity in the piston.
9. Repeat the above procedure to the rear brakes on the other side of the vehicle.
INSTALLATION
1. Begin on one side of the vehicle.
2. Completely retract the caliper piston back into piston bore of the caliper. This is required to gain the necessary shoe-to-rotor clearance for the caliper installation onto the steering knuckle.
3. Remove any protective paper from the noise suppression gasket on both inner and outer brake shoe assemblies (if equipped).
4. Install the inboard brake shoe into the caliper piston by firmly pressing the shoe in with the thumbs. Be sure the inboard brake shoe is positioned squarely against the face of the caliper piston.
5. Slide the outboard brake shoe onto the caliper assembly. Be sure the retaining clip is squarely seated in the depressed areas on the caliper.
6. Lubricate both adapter caliper slide abutments with a liberal amount of Mopar Multipurpose Lubricant, or an equivalent.
CAUTION: Use care when installing the caliper assembly onto adapter so the guide pin bushings and sleeves do not get damaged by the mounting bosses on adapter.
7. Starting with the lower end, carefully lower the caliper and brake shoes over the brake rotor and catch the caliper's bottom edge behind the caliper slide abutment. Rotate the top of the caliper into mounting position on the adapter.
CAUTION: Extreme caution should be taken not to cross thread the caliper guide pin bolts when they are installed.
8. Carefully install the caliper guide pin bolts, then tighten them to a torque of 22 Nm (192 inch lbs.).
9. Install the tire and wheel assembly. Tighten the wheel mounting nuts to a torque of 135 Nm (100 ft. lbs.).
10. Repeat the above procedure to the rear brakes on the other side of the vehicle.
11. Lower the vehicle.
12. Pump the brake pedal several times to ensure the vehicle has a firm brake pedal before moving the vehicle.
13. Road test the vehicle and make several stops to wear off any foreign material on the brakes and to seat the brake shoes.
