Rear brake calipers, servicing WARNING!
Note:
Do not re-use fasteners that are worn or
deformed in normal use.
Some fasteners are designed to be used only
once, and are unreliable and may fail if used
a second time. This includes, but is not
limited to, nuts, bolts, washers, circlips and
cotter pins. Always follow recommendations
in this manual-replace these fasteners with
new parts where indicated, and any other
time it is deemed necessary by inspection.
Install only the complete repair kit when
performing servicing work.
Apply a thin coat of assembly paste to brake
cylinders, pistons and seals.
