16. Pivot the caliper down into position. Install the flange bolt (A), and tighten it to the specified torque
while holding the caliper pin (B) with a wrench
being careful not to damage the pin boot.
17. Clean the mating surfaces between the brake disc and the inside of the wheel, then install the front
wheels.
18. Press the brake pedal several times to make sure the brakes work.
NOTE: Engagement may require a greater pedal
stroke immediately after the brake pads have been
replaced as a set. Several applications of the brake
pedal will restore the normal pedal stroke.
19. Add brake fluid as needed.
20. After installation, check for leaks at hose and line joints or connections, and retighten if necessary.
Test-drive the vehicle, then recheck for leaks
(see page 19-37). 1. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support it with
safety stands in the proper locations (see page
1-11).
2. Remove the front wheels.
3. Check the thickness (A) of the inner pad (B) and the outer pad (C). Do not include the thickness of the
backing plate.
4. If any part of the brake pad thickness is less than the service limit, replace the front brake pads as a
set.
5. Clean the mating surfaces between the brake disc and the inside of the wheel, then install the front
wheels.

1. Remove some brake fluid from the master cylinder.
2. Raise the front of the vehicle, and support it with
safety stands in the proper locations (see page

3. Remove the front wheels.
4. Remove the flange bolt (A) while holding the caliper pin (B) with a wrench. Be careful not to
damage the pin boot, and pivot the caliper (C) up
out of the way. Check the hose and pin boots for
damage and deterioration.
5. Remove the pad shims (A) and the brake pads (B). 6. Remove the pad retainers (A).
7. Clean the caliper bracket (B) thoroughly; remove
any rust, and check for grooves and cracks. Verify
that the caliper pins (C) move in and out smoothly.
Clean and lube if needed.
8. Inspect the brake disc for runout, thickness, parallelism (see page 19-19) and check for damage
and cracks.
9. Apply a thin coat of M-77 assembly paste (P/N 08798-9010) to the retainer mating surface of the
caliper bracket (indicated by the arrows).
10. Install the pad retainers. Wipe excess assembly pasteofftheretainers.Keeptheassemblypasteoff

11. Install the brake caliper piston compressor tool (A)
on the caliper body (B).
12. Press in the piston with the brake caliper piston compressor tool so the caliper will fit over the
brake pads. Make sure the piston boot is in position
to prevent damaging it when pivoting the caliper
down.
NOTE: Be careful when pressing in the piston;
brake fluid might overflow from the master
cylinder’s reservoir. If brake fluid gets on any
painted surface, wash it off immediately with water.
13. Remove the brake caliper piston compressor tool. 14. Apply a thin coat of M-77 assembly paste (P/N
08798-9010) to the pad side of the shims (A), the
back of the brake pads (B) and the other areas
indicated by the arrows. Wipe excess assembly
paste off the pad shims and the brake pads friction
material. Keep grease and assembly paste off the
brake disc and the brake pads. Contaminated brake
disc or brake pads reduce stopping ability.
15. Install the brake pads and the pad shims correctly. Install the brake pad with the wear indicator (C) on
the upper inside. If you are reusing the brake pads,
always reinstall the brake pads in their original
positions to prevent a momentary loss of braking
efficiency.

Frequent inhalation of brake pad dust, regardless of material composition, could be hazardous to your health.  Avoid breathing dust particles.
 Never use an air hose or brush to clean brake assemblies. Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleaner.
Remove, disassemble, inspect, reassemble, and install the caliper, and note these items:
NOTE: Make sure that the caliper pins are installed correctly. Upper caliper pin B and lower caliper pin A are different.
If these caliper pins are installed in the wrong location, it will cause vibration, uneven or rapid brake pad wear, and
possibly uneven tire wear.  Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid gets on the paint, wash it off immediately with water.
 To prevent dripping brake fluid, cover disc onnected hose joints with rags or shop towels.
 Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
 Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dirt and other foreign particles.
 Replace parts with new ones as specified in the illustration.
 Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter gets in the brake fluid.
 Make sure no grease or oil gets on the brake discs or pads.
 When reusing brake pads, always reinstall them in their original positions to prevent loss of braking efficiency.
 Do not reuse drained brake fluid. Use only clean Honda DOT 3 Brake Fluid from an unopened container. Using a non-Honda brake fluid can cause corrosion and shorten the life of the system.
 Coat the piston, the piston seal groove, and the caliper bore with clean brake fluid.
 Use recommended greases in the front caliper set.
 After installing the caliper, check the brake hose and line for leaks, interference, and twisting.
Install inner brake pad with
its wear indicator upward.

1-11).
2. Remove the rear wheels.
3. Check the thickness (A) of the inner pad (B) and the outer pad (C). Do not include the thickness of the
backing plate.
4. If any part of the brake pad thickness is less than the service limit, replace the rear brake pads as a

the tab (C) on the inner pad by turning the piston
back. Lubricate the boot with rubber grease to
avoid twisting the piston boot. If the piston boot is
twisted, back it out so it is positioned properly.

the caliper; brake fluid might overflow from the
master cylinder’s reservoir. If brake fluid gets on
any painted surface, wash it off immediately with
water.
