Rear Brake Pad Inspection and Replacement

1. Align the cutout (A) in the piston (B) with the tab (C) on the inner pad. 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.
   NOTE: Be careful when moving the piston back in the caliper; brake fluid might overflow from the master cylinder's reservoir.

1. Install the caliper. Install the flange bolts (D), and tighten it to the specified torque while holding the respective caliper pin with a wrench, being careful not to damage the pin boots and parking brake cable boots.

1. Install the brake hose mounting bolt (E).

1. Clean the mating surfaces of the brake disc and the inside of the wheel, then install the rear wheels.

1. 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.

1. Add brake fluid as needed.

1. After installation, check for leaks at hose and line joints or connections, and retighten if necessary. Test-drive the vehicle, then recheck for leaks.

1. Adjust the parking brake.
