        Torque:
        10.8 N*m  { 110 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf }

      2. Rear bleeder plug:

        Torque:
        11.0 N*m  { 112 kgf*cm, 8 ft.*lbf }

    6. Repeat the above procedure to bleed the air out of the brake line for each wheel.

  4. INSPECT BRAKE FLUID LEVEL IN RESERVOIR


    1. Check the fluid level and add fluid if necessary.

  5. CHECK BRAKE FLUID LEAKAGE

  6. INSTALL FRONT WHEEL

    Torque:
    100 N*m  { 1020 kgf*cm, 74 ft.*lbf }
