15Caliper Piston Installation
Hold the banjo at the desired angle.
Tighten the banjo bolt to 4.4-5.4 N·m (39-48 in-lb).
Insert the Guide™ bleed block into the caliper.
Install the pad retention bolt.
⚠ WARNING
You must bleed your brakes before reinstalling the brake pads.
Installing the brake pads prior to bleeding the brakes could
contaminate the brake pads and lead to a brake failure.
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.
