Rear Disc Brakes

Dust and dirt accumulating on brake parts during normal use may contain asbestos fibers from production or aftermarket brake linings. Breathing excessive concentrations of asbestos fibers can cause serious bodily harm. Exercise care when servicing brake parts. Do not sand or grind brake lining unless equipment used is designed to contain the dust residue. Do not clean brake parts with compressed air or by dry brushing. Cleaning should be done by dampening the brake components with a fine mist of water, then wiping the brake components clean with a dampened cloth. Dispose of cloth and all residue containing asbestos fibers in an impermeable container with the appropriate label. Follow practices prescribed by the Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) and the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA) for the handling, processing, and disposing of dust or debris that may contain asbestos fibers.

Pull out the caliper lower pin. Rotate the caliper assembly upwards. Secure the caliper assembly with a wire to keep it out of the way.

Remove the outer shims, brake pads and spring clips from the caliper support. Push the piston down and into the caliper bore. Grease the areas of contact that slide or rotate with silicone based lubricant.

Replace the brake pads, shims and spring clips with the new ones and fasten them to the caliper support. Lay the caliper on the brake pads and install the lower pin, making sure to tighten it securely. Replace the wheels and lower the vehicle.
