Installation Notes and Tips

Verify rear caliper style before ordering, especially on 2002 applications listed with Akebono rear calipers. Inspect rotors, calipers, and pad hardware condition during service, and replace worn components as needed. Because mounting hardware is not listed as included, confirm whether your vehicle requires separate hardware before beginning installation. After installation, follow the vehicle manufacturer’s brake bedding procedure for proper pad seating.
