4. Remove the pad retainers (A).

5. Clean the caliper thoroughly; remove any rust, and

check for grooves and cracks.

6. Check the brake disc for damage and cracks.

7. Apply a thin coat of Molycote M-77 assembly paste

(P/N 08798-9010) to the retainers on their mating
surfaces against the caliper bracket.

8. Install the pad retainers. Wipe excess assembly

paste off the retainers. Contaminated brake discs
and pads reduce stopping ability. Keep assembly
paste off the discs and pads.

9. Apply a thin coat of Molycote M-77 assembly paste

to both sides of the pad shims (A), the back of the
brake pads (B), and the other areas indicated by the
arrows. Wipe excess assembly paste off the shim.
Contaminated brake discs and pads reduce
stopping ability. Keep assembly paste off the brake
discs and pads.

10. Install the brake pads and pad shims correctly.

Install the brake pads with the wear indicator (C) on
the lower inside.
If you are reusing the brake pads, always reinstall
the brake pads in their original positions to prevent
a momentary loss of braking efficiency.

11. Rotate the caliper piston clockwise into the cylinder,

then align the cutout (A) in the piston with the tab
(B) on the inner pad by turning the piston back so
the caliper can be installed on the brake pad.
Lubricate the boot with rubber grease to avoid
twisting the piston boot. If the piston boot is twisted,
back it out so it is positioned properly.

12. Install the brake caliper (C) and caliper bolts (D),

and tighten the bolts to the specified torque.

13. Install the brake hose (E).

14. Press the brake pedal several times to make sure

the brake works, then test-drive the vehicle.

NOTE: Engagement of the brake may require a
greater pedal stroke immediately after the brake
pads have been replaced as a set. Several
applications of the brake pedal will restore the
normal pedal stroke.

15. After installation, check for leaks at hose and line

joints or connections, and retighten if necessary.

1. Raise the rear of the vehicle, and support it with

safety stands in the proper locations (see page
1-12).

2. Remove the rear wheels.

3. Remove the brake pads (see page 19-20).

4. Inspect the brake disc surface for damage and

cracks. Clean the brake disc thoroughly, and
remove all rust.

5. Install suitable flat washers (A) and the wheel nuts

(B), and tighten the wheel nuts to the specified
torque to hold the brake disc securely against the
hub.

6. Set up the dial gauge against the brake disc as

shown, and measure the runout at 10 mm (3/8 in.)
from the outer edge of the brake disc.

7. If the brake disc is beyond the service limit, refinish

the brake disc with an on-car brake lathe. The
Kwik-Lathe produced by Kwik-way Manufacturing
Co. and the ‘‘Front Brake Disc Lathe’’ offered by
Snap-on Tools Co. are approved for this operation.

NOTE:

• If the brake disc is beyond the service limit for

refinishing, replace it (see page 18-24).

• A new disc should be refinished if its runout is

greater than 0.10 mm (0.004 in.).

1. Raise the rear of the vehicle, and support it with

safety stands in the proper locations (see page
1-12).

2. Remove the rear wheels.

3. Remove the brake pads (see page 19-20).

4. Using a micrometer, measure brake disc thickness

at eight points, about 45 ° apart and 10 mm (3/8 in.)
in from the outer edge of the brake disc. Replace
the brake disc if the smallest measurement is less
than the max. refinishing limit.

NOTE: Parallelism is the maximum allowable
difference between the thickness measurements.

5. If the brake disc is beyond the service limit for

parallelism, refinish the brake disc with an on-car
brake lathe. The Kwik-Lathe produced by Kwik-way
Manufacturing Co. and the ‘‘Front Brake Disc
Lathe’’ offered by Snap-on Tools Co. are approved
for this operation.

NOTE: If the brake disc is beyond the service limit
for refinishing, replace it (see page 18-24).

Frequent inhalation of brake pad dust, regardless of material composition, could be hazardous to your health.

• Avoid breathing dust particles.
• Never use an air hose or brush to clean brake assemblies. Use an OSHA-approved vacuum cleaner.

Remove, disassemble, inspect, reassemble, and install the caliper, and note these items:

• Do not spill brake fluid on the vehicle; it may damage the paint; if brake fluid gets on the paint, wash it off

immediately with water.

• To prevent dripping brake fluid, cover disconnected hose joints with rags or shop towels.
• Clean all parts in brake fluid and air dry; blow out all passages with compressed air.
• Before reassembling, check that all parts are free of dust and other foreign particles.
• Replace parts with new ones as specified in the illustration.
• Make sure no dirt or other foreign matter gets into the brake fluid.
• Make sure no grease or oil gets on the brake discs or pads.
• When reusing pads, always reinstall them in their original positions to prevent loss of braking efficiency.
• Do not reuse drained brake fluid. Use only clean ACURA DOT 3 Brake Fluid from an unopened container. Using a

non-Acura brake fluid can cause corrosion and shorten the life of the system.

• Do not mix different brands of brake fluid as they may not be compatible.
• Coat the piston, piston seal groove, and caliper bore with clean brake fluid.
• Replace all rubber parts with new ones whenever disassembled.
• After installing the caliper, check the brake hose and line for leaks, interference, and twisting.

Replace.

Brake Hose and Line Inspection

1. Inspect the brake hoses, for damage, deterioration, leaks, interference, and twisting.

2. Check the brake lines for damage, rusting, and leakage. Also check for bent brake lines.

3. Check for leaks at hose and line joints or connections, and retighten if necessary.

4. Check the master cylinder and ABS modulator-control unit (if equipped) for damage and leakage.

NOTE: Replace the brake hose clip whenever the brake hose is serviced.
