Installation Notes and Tips

Installation requires the use of brake fluid recommended by the vehicle manufacturer, typically DOT 3 or DOT 4. Always bleed the brake system thoroughly to remove air and ensure proper pedal feel. The included hardware kit should be used for mounting the caliper and bracket, but note that mounting bolts are not supplied and must be reused or replaced separately.
