Installation Notes and Tips

The included installation hardware and bracket simplify mounting, but brake pads must be sourced separately. Verify the inlet fitting thread size (M10-1.5) matches your vehicle’s brake line connection. Inspect dust boots and caliper slides for proper seating to prevent premature wear.
