Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the BBB Industries 99-17378B caliper, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic pressure. Verify that the caliper slides are clean and lubricated to prevent binding. Use the provided installation hardware and bracket for a secure fit. The banjo bolt inlet fitting requires proper torque to avoid leaks. Always inspect brake pads separately, as this caliper does not include pads.
