Disassembly
- WARNING: Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies.
- Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleaner to avoid breathing brake dust.
- Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability.
CAUTION:
- Do not spill brake fluid on the car; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
- To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.
- Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
1. Remove the caliper shield.
2. Remove the lock pin and clevis pin. Remove the cable clip and disconnect the cable from the parking brake arm.
3. Remove the banjo bolt and two sealing washers.
4. Remove the two caliper mounting bolts and caliper body from the bracket.
5. Remove the pad spring from the caliper body.
6. Remove the piston by rotating the piston counterclockwise with the special tool and remove the piston boot.
CAUTION: Avoid damaging the piston.
7. Remove the piston seal.
CAUTION: Take care not to damage the cylinder bore.
8. Install the special tool between the caliper body and spring cover.
CAUTION: Be careful not to damage the inside of the caliper cylinder during caliper disassembly.
9. Position the locknuts as shown, then turn the shaft until the plate just contacts the caliper body.
NOTE: Do not compress the spring under the spring cover.
10. Turn the shaft clockwise 1/4-1/2 turn to compress the adjusting spring B in the caliper body.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the inner components, do not turn the shaft more than 1/2 turn.
10. Turn the shaft clockwise 1/4-1/2 turn to compress the adjusting spring B in the caliper body.
CAUTION: To prevent damage to the inner components, do not turn the shaft more than 1/2 turn.
11. Lower the locknuts fully and tighten the locknuts securely.
NOTE: Keep the locknuts in this position until you reinstall the circlip.
12. Remove the circlip with snap ring pliers.
13. Hold the plate with your fingers and turn the shaft counterclockwise. Remove the special tool from the caliper.
14. Remove the adjusting bolt.
15. Remove the spring cover, adjusting spring B, spacer, bearing A and cup from the adjusting bolt.
16. Remove the sleeve piston, and remove the pin from the cam.
17. Remove the return spring.
18. Remove the parking lever and cam as an assembly from the caliper body.
CAUTION: Do not loosen the parking nut with the cam installed in the caliper body. If the lever and shalt must be separated, hold the lever in a vise and loosen the parking nut.
19. Remove the cam boot.
Reassembly
WARNING:
- Never use an air hose or dry brush to clean brake assemblies.
- Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleaner to avoid breathing brake dust.
- Contaminated brake discs or pads reduce stopping ability.
- When reusing the pads, install them in their original positions to prevent loss of braking efficiency.
CAUTION:
- Do not spill brake fluid on the car; it may damage the paint: if brake fluid does contact the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
- To prevent spills, cover the hose joints with rags or shop towels.
- Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passage with compressed air.
- Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.
- Replace parts with new ones whenever specified to do so.
- Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter is allowed to contaminate the brake fluid.
- Do not mix different brands of brake fluid as they may not be compatible.
- Do not reuse the drained fluid. Use only clean DOT 3 or 4 brake fluid.
NOTE:
- Coat piston, piston seal, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid.
- Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.
1. Pack all cavities of the needle bearing with recommended grease.
. Coat the new cam boot with recommended grease and install it in the caliper body.
3. Apply recommended grease to the pin contacting area of the cam and install the cam and lever assembly into the caliper body.
4. Install the return spring.
CAUTION:
- When the cam and lever were separated, be sure to assemble them before installing the cam in the caliper body. Install the lever and spring washer apply locking agent to the threads, and tighten the parking nut while holding the lever with a vise.
- Avoid damaging the cam boot since it must be installed before the cam.
- When installing the cam, do not allow the cam boot lips to turn outside in.
5. Install the pin in the cam.
6. Apply recommended grease to the new O-ring and install it on the sleeve piston.
7. Install the sleeve piston so the hole in the bottom of the piston is aligned with the pin in the cam and two pins on the piston are aligned with the holes in the caliper.
8. Coat a new cup with recommended grease, and install it with its groove facing the bearing A side of the adjusting bolt.
9. Fit the bearing A, spacer, adjusting spring B and spring cover on the adjusting bolt, and install them in the caliper cylinder.
10. Install the special tool on the spring cover and turn the shaft until the locknut contacts the plate
11. Check that the flared end of the spring cover is below the circlip groove.
12. Install the circlip in the groove, then remove the special tool.
NOTE: Check that the circlip is seated in the groove properly.
13. Coat a new piston seal with silicone grease and in stall it in the caliper.
14. Apply brake cylinder grease (P/N: 08733-BO2OE) or equivalent rubber grease to the sealing lips and inside of a new piston boot, and install it in the caliper.
15. Coat the outside of the piston with brake fluid and install it on the adjusting bolt while rotating it clockwise with the special tool.
16. Install the pad spring on the caliper.
17. Install the brake pad retainers and brake pads.
CAUTION: Avoid damaging the piston and piston boot.
18. Align the cutout in the piston with the tab on the inner pad.
19. Install the caliper on the caliper bracket and tighten the caliper mounting bolts.
20. Connect the brake hose to the caliper with new sealing washers and tighten the banjo bolt.
21. Insert the cable through the arm and connect the cable to the lever with the clevis pin and lock pin. Install the cable clip securely.
22. Fill the brake reservoir up and bleed the brake system.
23. Operate the brake pedal several times, then adjust the parking brake.
24. After installation, perform the following checks.
- Check for leaks at hose and line joints or connections, and retighten if necessary.
- Check the parking brake lever for operation and adjust if necessary.
