Installation Instructions
- Remove the axles to take the backing plates off.
Install the axles with the spacer plates.
Install the base brackets with the caliper towards the rear. If the stock
retainer will not slide far enough to get our bracket in, remove the stock
retainer. Our bracket holds the bearing in. Use the spacer plate to take the
place of the backing plate. Use the 3/8 x 1 1/2 T- Bolts, lock washers, Flat
washers and nuts. The bracket has 2 positions use the one that lets the
caliper clear the best. The rear parking brake calipers have their bleed screw
in the 90-degree position and the front calipers have the bleed screw in the
45-degree position. Bolt the top bracket to the base with the spacers between.
(The Bracket is spaced to the inside of the vehicle away from the rotor. Use
more or less spacers to move the top to the correct position.) (45 ft. lbs.
dry 30 ft. lbs. Lubed) The welded sleeves face the wheel. You might have to
leave one bolt out of the housing as the top bracket fits close to the housing
flange.
Install the rotors, making sure the surfaces that meet are clean with no
projections that would make the rotors wobble, and hold in place with a couple
of wheel nuts.
Rotate the rotors and check for wobble, if there is any, check for
interference in the mating surfaces, if not then the axle and rotor bolted
together should be faced to true up. Mark the position that it is bolted to
the axle so that it can be reinstalled the same way if the rotors are ever
removed.
Install the calipers so that the bleed screw is facing up, if it is facing
down use the other caliper. Make sure the projections on the bottom of the
calipers don’t touch the bracket.
Use a flexible brake line to each caliper as they move with pad wear and
when the brakes are applied.
Bleed the brakes and try out. If the back wheels skid before the fronts
you should install and adjustable proportioning valve to reduce the pressure
to the rear brakes (follow gravity bleeding instructions in
troubleshooting
sheet
especially for rear calipers).
If you would like a 3/8" longer stud, get Dorman part no. 610-259.
