Rotate the caliper to unscrew it from the brake hose. Close the hose with a plug.

Disassembly


Wipe the caliper clean of dirt and dust. Remove the pistons from the caliper. To do this, you can apply low-pressure air to the hole for connecting the brake hose. Remove the dust caps from the grooves in the pistons and the sealing rings in the caliper holes. Clean all caliper parts with alcohol or clean brake fluid and wipe them. Inspect the pistons and caliper for wear and other damage. Lubricate the caliper cylinder and sealing rings with clean brake fluid and install them in the caliper cylinders.

Install the dust boots on the pistons so that their inner diameter fits into the piston grooves. Insert the pistons into the caliper and simultaneously press the dust boots into the caliper until they are firmly fixed



Installation

Install the brake pads. Remove air from the brake system. Install the wheel and lower the car.
