Step 6

5. Place caliper over rotor and mounting plate. A bleeder valve must be in the up

position (see above). Check both calipers for this position. Some calipers have

two valves others have only one.

6. Apply a coating of Loctite

to threads on the mounting plate. Insert slider pins

through backside of rotor into mounting plate. Use a 7/16” hex socket and tighten

both pins to 40 ft. lbs. Check for binding, make sure rotor spins freely.

NOTE: Slider pins have a lock-thread coating. If pins do not have Loctite

or if the pins

are removed after step 6, the threads must be cleaned and a new coat of “permanent”
Loctite

must be applied. Clean and apply Loctite

to threads on the mounting plate. Be

careful not to get Loctite

on slider pins or bushings.

7. Connect brakes lines and bleed brakes before using.

IMPORTANT:

When bleeding calipers, always use the top most bleeder valve to allow air to

escape from the caliper piston.

Always bleed through the upper
most bleeder valve.
