Installation Tips
Installing your new brake pads is straightforward, but a few key steps will ensure everything goes smoothly:
- Make sure to securely position the brake pads within the caliper for proper alignment.
- Check your brake fluid levels and replace or flush as needed to maintain optimal performance.
- Inspect all hydraulic components for signs of wear and tear—better safe than sorry!
- Examine the rotors for deep grooves or scoring; if necessary, resurface or replace them to ensure a clean braking surface.
- If your rotors are in good shape, remove any contamination from previous pads by sanding them lightly with 130-grit sandpaper. Follow up with a thorough cleaning using soap and water to eliminate any oil, grease, or brake fluid residue.
- Lastly, check the calipers to ensure they move freely and lubricate where necessary for smooth operation.
