24. Coat the threads of the 90 degree fitting with Loctite then
thread it into the back of the caliper. Tighten it until it is
pointing in the direction of the caliper.
25. Connect the other end of the Wilwood brake hose to the
fitting on the caliper and tighten. (IMAGE 17)
26. Using a cut-off wheel or hack saw, cut off the factory brake
hose tab located on the top of the upper A-arm.
27. Install the supplied cable clamp using the supplied self-
tapping sheet metal screw. Thread the clamp to the top of
the A-arm as shown in IMAGE 18.
28. Bleed brakes making sure to bleed the air out of all 8
bleeder screws starting at the furthest screw.
29. Repeat steps 3-28 on the other side of the vehicle.
30. Install wheel/tires.
Pad Bedding
The bedding process is the final "heat cure" for the pads. This final bedding cure differs from an oven heat cure in such that the oven
heat cure does not include the pressure, torque, and elevated surface temperatures that are necessary to properly condition the pad for
service. As it is with the rotors, new pads must be gradually brought up to temperature and then slowly cooled. If the pads are put into
hard service right from the start, damage from fractures or accelerated deterioration due to extreme temperature variations between the
surface and the body of the pad can occur. Overall poor performance with the potential for rotor damage are often the results.
Bedding Steps:
Once the brake system has been tested and determined safe to operate the vehicle, follow these steps for bedding of all pad materials
and rotors. This procedure should be performed on a race track or other safe location where you can safely and legally obtains speeds
up to 65 MPH while also being able to rapidly decelerate.
1. Proceed with a series of 8-10 hard stops from 55-65 MPH down to 25 MPH allowing 20-30 seconds of cool down time between
each stop.
2. Drive at a moderate cruising speed, with the least amount of brake contact possible, until most of the heat has dissipated from the
brakes. Avoid sitting stopped with the brake pedal depressed to hold the car in place during this time. Park the vehicle and allow the
brakes to cool to ambient air temperature.
