Installation Procedure
- Using the CH-42450-A Wheel Hub Resurfacing Kit, thoroughly clean any rust or corrosion from the mating surface of the hub/axle flange.
- Using the CH-41013 Rotor Resurfacing Kit, thoroughly clean any rust or corrosion from the mating surface and mounting surface of the brake rotor.
- Prepare the brake caliper bolts and caliper threaded holes for assembly:
- Thoroughly clean the residue from the bolt threads with a wire brush and denatured alcohol and allow to dry.
- Thoroughly clean the residue from the caliper threaded holes with a wire brush and denatured alcohol and allow to dry.
- Apply threadlocker to 2/3 of the threaded length of the bolts. Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers
- Ensure there are no gaps in the threadlocker along the length of the filled area of the bolts.
- Install the brake rotor (1).
- Position the brake caliper assembly to the steering knuckle.
- Install the brake caliper bolts (1) and tighten to 40 N.m (30 lb ft) + 90 degrees.
- Install the tire and wheel assembly. Tire and Wheel Removal and Installation
- If the brake rotor was refinished or replaced, or if new brake pads were installed, burnish the brake pads and rotors. Brake Pad and Rotor Burnishing
NOTE:
Whenever the brake rotor has been separated from the hub/axle flange, any rust or contaminants should be cleaned from the hub/axle flange and the brake rotor mating surfaces. Failure to do this may result in excessive assembled lateral runout (LRO) of the brake rotor, which could lead to brake pulsation.
CAUTION:
