Installation Notes and Tips

When installing the BBB Industries 99-17445B caliper, ensure the brake system is properly bled using the included bleeder screw to remove air and maintain hydraulic pressure. The included installation hardware and bracket simplify mounting, but bracket mounting bolts are not included and must be sourced separately. Verify compatibility with your vehicle’s brake line fittings, as the caliper uses a banjo bolt inlet fitting with M10-1.5 thread size. Dust boots and caliper slides are included to help maintain smooth operation and protect internal components.
