Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure the vehicle is securely lifted and supported before beginning brake service. Remove the old brake pads and clean the caliper bracket to remove debris. Install the included mounting hardware and pad shims to reduce noise and ensure proper pad alignment. Since these pads are prepared for a pad wear sensor, verify sensor compatibility if your vehicle is equipped with one.
