Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the 99-17300B caliper, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air from the hydraulic lines.

Inspect dust boots and caliper slides for proper lubrication and condition before assembly. This caliper does not include brake pads or anti-squeal shims, so these components should be installed separately as needed.
