INSTALLATION
FRONT
1. Install the caliper (5) on the adapter (2).
2. Caliper slide pins should be free from debris and lightly lubricated..
3. Install the caliper slide pin bolts (2) and tighten to 44 N·m (32 ft. lbs.).
4. Gently lift one end of the slide pin boot to equalize air pressure, then release the boot and verify that the boot is fully covering the slide pin.
CAUTION: Verify brake hose is not twisted or kinked before tightening banjo bolt.
5. Install brake hose (5) to caliper (1) with new copper washers (6) and tighten banjo bolt (6) to 31 N·m (23 ft. lbs.).
6. Fill and bleed brake system.
7. Install wheel and tire assemblies.
8. Remove supports and lower vehicle.
9. Verify brake fluid level.
FRONT - SRT8
CAUTION: Always inspect brake pads before installing disc brake caliper and replace as necessary.
1. Completely retract caliper pistons back into bores of caliper. Use hand pressure or a C-clamp may also be used to retract pistons, first placing a wood block or used brake pad (not to be reused) over pistons before installing C-clamp to avoid damaging piston.
2. If brake pads need to be replace install in caliper before installation, (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/BRAKE PADS/SHOES - INSTALLATION).
3. Slide caliper (2) with pads over brake rotor (1) and align with knuckle.
4. Install caliper mounting bolts (4). Tighten bolts to 190 N·m (140 ft. lbs.) torque.
5. Install banjo bolt (3) attaching brake hose (2) to caliper (1). Install NEW washers on each side of hose fitting as banjo bolt is placed through banjo fitting. Thread banjo bolt into caliper and tighten to 33 N·m (24 ft. lbs.) torque.
6. Install tire and wheel assembly.
7. Lower vehicle.
8. Remove brake pedal holding tool.
9. Connect battery negative cable to battery.
10. Bleed base brake hydraulic system as necessary. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - STANDARD PROCEDURE)
REAR
1. Install the brake pads.
2. Lubricate the slide pins and slide pin bushings with caliper slide grease or the grease provided with the caliper.
3. Install the caliper (1) on the anchor.
4. Install the caliper slide pin bolts (4) and tighten to 25 N·m (18 ft. lbs.).
CAUTION: Verify brake hose is not twisted or kinked before tightening fitting bolt.
5. Install brake hose (3) to caliper with a new gasket washers and tighten banjo bolt (5) to 31 N·m (23 ft. lbs.).
6. Fill and bleed brake system.
7. Install wheel and tire assemblies.
8. Remove supports and lower vehicle.

2. If installing new brake pads (5), (Refer to 5 - BRAKES/HYDRAULIC/MECHANICAL/BRAKE PADS/SHOES - INSTALLATION).
3. Slide caliper (4) with pads over brake rotor and align with knuckle.
4. Install caliper mounting bolts (1). Tighten bolts to 130 N·m (96 ft. lbs.) torque.
5. Install banjo bolt (2) attaching brake hose (3) to caliper (4). Install NEW washers on each side of hose fitting as banjo bolt is placed through banjo fitting. Thread banjo bolt into caliper and tighten to 31 N·m (23 ft. lbs.) torque.
6. Install tire and wheel assembly (Refer to 22 - TIRES/WHEELS - INSTALLATION)
CAUTION: If NEW brake pads have been installed, keep in mind that braking effectiveness might be somewhat reduced during the first brake applications.
7. Lower vehicle.
8. Remove brake pedal holding tool.
9. Connect battery negative cable.
10. Bleed base brake hydraulic system as necessary. (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - STANDARD PROCEDURE).
