Re: How do I assemble the front break disc pads on a 2004...
To install:
- Siphon a small amount of brake fluid from the reservoir. Press in the brake caliper piston with the proper tool.
- Before installing the new pads, check the disc thickness and disc runout.
- Install the pad support plates.
- Install the anti-squeal shims to each pad.
NOTE
Apply disc brake grease to both sides of the inner anti-squeal shims.
- Install the disc pads so the wear indicator plate is facing downward.
- If removed, install the anti-squeal springs.
- Carefully install the brake caliper so the boot is not wedged.
- Install the wheel and tire assembly.
- Check and adjust the fluid level. Apply the brake pedal several times.
- Roadtest the vehicle for proper operation.
