PAD





1. Remove lock pin.
2. Raise caliper body.
3. Remove pad from support.





NOTE: If brake pad is difficult to remove, use the same procedure as for front disc brake pad.





4. Check pad thickness (including back metal).
Pad thickness: A
Standard value 14 mm (0.55 inch)
Wear limit 6.5 mm (0.256 inch)

CAUTION:
- Always replace the pads for both the left and right wheels at the same time. Also replace pad clips if they are twisted or worn.
- A wear indicator is provided on the inner disc brake pad. If the pad wears down to such an extent that the end of the wear indicator contacts the disc rotor, a squeaking sound is produced as the wheel rotates. If this sound is heard, replace the pad.
- Replace pad if there is oil or grease on it.

5. Apply a thin coat of Molykote AS880N (Part No. 26298AC000) to the frictional portion between pad and pad clip.
6. Install pad on support.
7. Install caliper body on support.
Tightening torque: 39 ± 5 Nm (4.0 ± 0.5 kg-m, 28.9 ± 3.6 ft. lbs.)

NOTE: If it is difficult to push piston during pad replacement, loosen air bleeder to facilitate work.
