WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of air borne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
• While removing cylinder bod y, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
• Do not damage piston boot.
• Keep rotor free from brake fluid.
• Refill with new specified brake fluid.
• Burnish brake contact surface after refinishing or replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or it a soft
pedal occurs at very low mileage. Refer to BR-30, "
Brake Burnishing Procedure".
REMOVAL
1. Remove front wheel and tire. Refer to WT-49, "Rotation".
2. Fasten disc rotor using wheel nut.

5. Remove torque member bolts, and remove brake caliperassembly.
CAUTION:
Do not drop brake pad.
6. Apply matching marks to disc rotor and wheel hub assembly as shown if the disc rotor is to be reused, then remove disc rotor.
CAUTION:
Put matching marks on wheel hub assembly and disc rotor
if the disc rotor is to be reused.
INSTALLATION
1. If reusing the disc rotor, use the matching marks to align discrotor on the wheel hub assembly as shown, then install disc
rotor using a wheel nut to hold it in place.
CAUTION:
Use matching marks on wheel hub assembly and disc rotor
if the disc rotor is to be reused.
2. Install brake caliper assembly to vehicle, and tighten torque member bolts to the specified torque.
CAUTION:
Do not allow oil or any moisture on all contact surfaces
between steering knuckle and caliper assembly, bolts, and
washer.

Removal and Installation of Brake PadINFOID:0000000005147918
WARNING:
Clean dust on caliper and brake pad with a vacuum dust collector to minimize the hazard of air borne
particles or other materials.
CAUTION:
• While removing cylinder body, do not depress brake pedal because piston will pop out.
• It is not necessary to disconnect brake hose connection except for disassembly or replacement of
caliper assembly. In this case, ha ng cylinder body with a wire so as not to stretch brake hose.
• Do not damage piston boot.
• If any shim is subject to serious corrosion, replace it with a new one.
• Always replace shim and shim cover as a set when replacing brake pads.
• Keep rotor free from brake fluid.
• Burnish the brake pads and disc rotor mutually contacting surfaces, after refinishing or replacing
rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
REMOVAL
1. Remove rear wheel and tires using power tools.
2. Partially drain some brake fluid from the reservoir.
3. Remove the sliding sleeves and sliding pin bolts from the cylinder body.
4. Support the cylinder body with wire, remove pads, shims, cover and retainers.
INSTALLATION
1. Push piston in using suitable tool.
CAUTION:
By pushing in piston, brake fluid returns to mast er cylinder reservoir tank. Watch the brake fluid
level in the reservoir tank.
NOTE:
Using a suitable tool, makes it easier to push in the piston.

2. Apply Molykote M-77 grease to knuckle slide where brake pad contacts and to the outer multi-layered
shim, pad retainers and inner shim.
CAUTION:
Do not get grease on the brake pads or brake rotor friction surfaces.
3. Install pads, shims, cover and retainers to cylinder body.
4. Apply rubber grease to the sliding sleeves and install cylinder body, sliding sleeves and sliding pin bolts and tighten to specification. Refer to BR-35, "
Exploded View of Brake Caliper".
5. Check rear disc brake for drag.
6. Install rear wheel and tires. Refer to WT-49, "
Rotation".
Brake Burnishing ProcedureINFOID:0000000005147919
Burnish contact surfaces between disc rotors and pads according to following procedure after refinishing or
replacing rotors, after replacing pads, or if a soft pedal occurs at very low mileage.
CAUTION:
• Be careful of vehicle speed because the brake does not operate easily until pad and disc rotor are securely seated.
• Only perform this procedure under safe road and traffic conditions. Use extreme caution.
1. Drive vehicle on straight, flat road.
2. Depress brake pedal with the power to stop vehicle within 3 to 5 seconds until the vehicle stops.
3. Drive without depressing brake for a few minutes to cool the brake.
4. Repeat steps 1 through 3 until pad and disc rotor are securely seated.
