Installation Notes and Tips

Inspect rotors, calipers, and pad hardware condition before installation. Because mounting hardware is not included, reuse only serviceable existing hardware or replace it separately as needed. Confirm pad wear sensor routing and connector condition before final assembly. After installation, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bedding procedure to help establish proper pad transfer on the rotor surface. Verify fitment against the specific year, make, model, and brake configuration before ordering.
