Assembly and Installation
3. Install a new dust seal into the top groove of
the bore. Do not use silicone grease on the dust
seal. Figure 5.1.
NOTE: Take care when you install the O-ring, so
that the cylinder cap threads don’t cut the O-ring.
4. Install a new O-ring into the cylinder cap
groove between the threads and flange.
NOTE: Apply extra grease to the O-ring before
you install a cylinder cap to help prevent the
O-ring from catching on cylinder cap threads.
5. Apply extra grease to the O-ring. Install the
cylinder cap into the caliper housing. Tighten
the cylinder cap to the following specificaitons.
6. Install the pistons into the housing, with the
hole in the piston toward the lining. Push the
pistons into the housing from the lining side of
the housing. Check that the pistons are straight
in the bores.
7. Push each piston into the bore until the top of
each piston is even with the top of the dust
seal.
8. Install the bleeder screws into the housing and
tighten them to 100-180 lb-in (11.3-20.3 N•m).
9. Install the O-ring and the inlet fitting into the
cylinder cap.
Installation
Caliper
1. Place blocks under the wheels of the vehicle to
keep the vehicle from moving.
2. If shims are used, put the shims in the position
marked during removal.
3. Place the caliper housing on the mounting
bracket. Install the fasteners that hold the
caliper onto the bracket. Tighten the fasteners
to the torque specified by the equipment
manufacturer.
WARNING
To prevent serious eye injury, always wear safe
eye protection when you perform vehicle
maintenance or service.
Assembly
Caliper
CAUTION
Only use specified components when you
assemble the caliper. If you install the incorrect
components, the caliper will not operate
correctly. If you use non-Meritor parts, incorrect
brake operation can occur. Damage to
components can result.
NOTE: You must lubricate the O-rings, back-up
rings, pistons and bores before you can install
the pistons.
1. Lubricate all pistons, bores, O-rings and back-
up rings with silicone grease such as Dow
Corning DC-4 or equivalent. If silicone grease is
not available, use the same type of fluid that is
used in the brake system.
2. Install a new O-ring and a back-up ring into the
groove in the middle of the bore.
A. Install the back-up ring toward the lining
side of the bore. Figure 5.1.
B. Install the O-ring behind the back-up ring.
Figure 5.1.
