Install the 2 rear disc brake pad guide pins to the rear disc brake cylinder mounting.
INSTALL REAR DISC BRAKE PAD SUPPORT PLATE
Install the 2 rear disc brake pad support plates to the rear disc brake cylinder mounting.
Note
Be sure to install each rear disc brake pad support plate in the correct position and direction.
INSTALL REAR DISC BRAKE ANTI-SQUEAL SHIM
Apply disc brake grease to the back plate of the rear disc brake pads.
| *1 | Rear No. 1 Disc Brake Anti-squeal Shim |
| *2 | Rear No. 2 Disc Brake Anti-squeal Shim |
Install the rear No. 1 disc brake anti-squeal shim and rear No. 2 disc brake anti-squeal shim to each rear disc brake pad.
Note
When replacing worn pads, the anti-squeal shims must be replaced together with the pads.
Apply disc brake grease to the area that contacts the anti-squeal shim.
Disc brake grease may seep out slightly from the areas where the anti-squeal shims are installed.
Make sure that disc brake grease is not applied onto the lining surface.
INSTALL REAR DISC BRAKE PAD
Install the 2 rear disc brake pads to the rear disc brake cylinder mounting.
Note
There should be no oil or grease on the friction surfaces of the disc brake pads or the rear disc.
Install the 2 anti-squeal springs to the rear disc brake pads.
Note
When replacing the rear disc brake pads with new ones, make sure to replace the anti-squeal springs at the same time.
Be sure to install the anti-squeal springs into the rear disc brake pad installation holes as far as they will go.
INSTALL REAR DISC BRAKE CYLINDER ASSEMBLY
To compensate for pad wear when reusing the pad, use SST to turn the piston to the position where the protrusion on the pad lines up properly with the piston groove.
| Retract | Extend |
|---|---|
| Clockwise | Counterclockwise |
Note
Place the disc between the 2 brake pads and determine the piston return value.
| *1 | Hold |
| *2 | Turn |
Hold the rear disc brake cylinder pad guide pin, and install the rear disc brake cylinder assembly to the rear disc brake cylinder mounting with the 2 bolts.
Note
Install the rear disc brake cylinder assembly while holding both of the rear disc brake pads because the anti-squeal springs may fall off the rear disc brake pads.
Be sure that the anti-squeal springs are installed to the rear disc brake pads.
CONNECT REAR FLEXIBLE HOSE
