29Caliper Piston Installation
Hold the banjo fitting at the desired angle. Use a torque wrench
with an 8 mm flare nut crowfoot to tighten the banjo bolt to
9.7-11.7 N·m (86-104 in-lb).
Insert the bleed block into the caliper.
NOTICE
You must bleed your brakes before reinstalling the brake pads.
Spray isopropyl alcohol on the caliper and clean it with a rag.
Visually check your work. If any of the o-rings protrude from the banjo fitting or banjo bolt, remove and replace the o-rings, then repeat
the installation process.
⚠ CAUTION
Servicing your brakes removes all of the fluid from the system. You must bleed the brakes after you service the brake caliper and/or lever.
