Installation Notes and Tips

Ensure compatibility by verifying the part number 141.47042 against your Subaru model and year. The caliper is semi-loaded, so brake pads must be sourced separately. Use the included mounting bracket and abutment clips for secure installation. Properly bleed the brake system using the supplied bleeder screw with M10x1.0 thread size to remove air and maintain brake performance. Check inlet fitting type compatibility (banjo or open) with your vehicle’s brake lines before installation.
