Installation and bedin tips

1. Safely raise and support the vehicle, remove the wheels, and inspect the rear calipers and mounting surfaces for wear or damage.
2. Remove the old rotors and install the new rear rotors, ensuring clean surfaces and proper seating against the hub.
3. Apply the brake antisqueal kit where indicated to minimize noise after installation.
4. Install the fourpiece pad set with the new pad pins, following the factory torque specs for caliper mounting components.
5. Reassemble, bleed if your system requires it, and perform a cautious test drive to verify proper function.
6. Bedin the new pads: make several moderate stops from about 30–50 mph with steady, lighttomoderate braking to transfer an even layer of pad material to the rotors, then allow the brakes to cool. Avoid repeated hard stops during the first few miles.
