Using a 13mm socket and a 17mm wrench, remove the slide pin bolts. The procedure is the same as for the rear caliper. 18 Compress the cylinder back to its lowest position. If you don't have a brake windback tool, you can use a c-clamp and one of the old brake pads to compress ...
I HIGHLY recommend you do not compress the pistons without opening the valves. These systems are getting more and more delicate by the day and you do not want to damage your ABS system. Then replace new pads and bolt it all back up. I forget the torque spec for the caliper bo...
A section of plastic hose or rubber tubing used to bleed brake fluid out of the brake system. One end of the tube mounts over the bleeder screw on the caliper housing. When the screw is loosened, brake fluid flows out into a container where the other end of the hose is placed. These...
Once the brake is released, compress the lever, pull on the housing, and slide it through the barrel adjuster until the inner wire is exposed. Now carefully squeeze a few drops of oil onto the inner cable just above where it runs down into the housing. If the cable is vertical, the oi...
The brake booster was developed to sit in between the master cylinder and driver’s pedal, to make it easier for it to press the pedal. While the master cylinder’s diameter is already smaller than that of the caliper pistons, the force required to compress it is still great. ...
when you step on your brake pedal, your car pushes pressurized fluid through its brake lines into a caliper at each wheel, where the brake pads are located. The brake fluid pushes the brake pads against a disc rotor in each wheel to slow it down, gradually bringing your wheels to a stop...
wherein the air actuator is separated in a section to be pressurized and a non-pressurized section by a slidable piston, wherein the non-pressurized section in fluid communication with the interior of the caliper, and the non-pressurized section and the interior of the caliper are substantially...
As shown in Figure 2b, the driven bearing is installed inside the driven bracket, which can move in a straight line within the caliper housing. The camshaft passes through the driven bearing, and when the camshaft rotates, its profile contacts the inner ring of the driven bearing. The driven...
