Front Caliper: Notes

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2003 Chevrolet SSR. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.

CAUTION: Do not place your fingers in front of the piston in order to catch or protect the piston while applying compressed air. This could result in serious injury.

NOTE: Use clean cloths to pad interior of caliper housing during piston removal. Use just enough air to ease the pistons out of the bores. If the pistons are blown out, even with the padding provided, it may be damaged.

NOTE: Required Tools: Driver Handle (J-8092) and Boot Seal Installer (J-43885)
