Installing the new brake rotor
1. First inspect the brake assembly for grooves, aking, cracks, heat
checking, thickness variation, insufcient rotor thickness, and look to
see that the mounting hardware is straight. Replace any component as
needed (or desired) per manufacturer recommendations.
2. Install the new brake rotor by tting it onto the hub ush with the hub
face.
Note: Use two lug nuts to secure rotor against the hub face when
reassembling the calipers. After the calipers are assembled remove the
lug nuts.
3. Remount the caliper assembly onto the caliper attaching bracket. It
may be necessary to push the piston into the calipers to obtain enough
clearance. Torque mounting bolts to 25-35 Ft. Lbs.
4. For brakes produced after April 2008, locate the tube clamp attached
to the crossover brake line and attach to the caliper mounting bracket.
Using the 1/4-20 bolt, torque to 85-100 In. Lbs.
5. Spin the rotor to ensure that there is enough clearance between the rotor
and the crossover brake line.
6. Reconnect the brake actuation system. Refer to your Operation
Maintenance Service Manual for proper operation.
7. Remount the wheel. Refer to your Operation Maintenance Service
Manual for proper wheel nut torque procedures.
8. Spin the wheel to ensure that there is enough clearance between the
wheel and crossover brake line or caliper.
