Installation Notes and Tips
Compatible with 1997-2001 Cadillac Catera, front. Inspect rotors, caliper hardware, and pad contact points before installation. Clean the bracket surfaces, apply brake lubricant where appropriate if specified by the vehicle service procedure, and verify smooth pad movement in the abutment clips. Because mounting hardware and brake lubricant are not included, reuse or replace those items as needed during brake service.
