Remove the bolts and position the caliper, pads and anchor plate assembly aside.

- Discard the bolts.

- Support the caliper and anchor plate assembly using mechanic's wire.

- To install, tighten the new bolts to 165 Nm (122 lb-ft).

Installation

1. NOTICE: Do not use power tools to install the wheel stud. The serrations on the stud can be stripped.

NOTE: Do not use the wheel nut that came with the vehicle.

NOTE: Make sure to use washers that have an ID that is larger than the OD of the wheel stud serrations. Use enough washers (approximately 4) to allow the wheel stud to fully seat against the hub flange.

Install approximately 4 washers and a new wheel nut on the wheel stud and tighten the nut until the stud seats against the flange.

- Discard the wheel nut and washers.
