Assembly






ASSEMBLY

CAUTION: Dirt, oil, and solvents can damage caliper seals. Ensure assembly area is clean and dry.

NOTE: Always use new, clean Mopar(R) DOT 3 Motor Vehicle Brake Fluid when assembling brake caliper.

NOTE: Never use old piston seals or boots.

1. Lubricate caliper pistons, piston seals and piston bores with clean, fresh brake fluid.




2. Install NEW piston seals (3) into caliper piston bores (2).

NOTE: Verify seal is fully seated and not twisted.

3. Install NEW boot on each piston and work boot lip into groove at top of piston. Stretch boot rearward straightening boot folds, then move boot forward as necessary until folds snap into place.




4. Install first piston (3) into caliper piston bore, pressing piston down to bottom of bore using hand-pressure. Using a piece of wood or wooden hammer handle may also suffice as long as piston and boot (2) damage is avoided.
