Rear Brake Pad Inspection and Replacement

  1. Apply Molykote M77 grease to the pad side of the shim (A), the back of the brake pads (B), and the other areas indicated by the arrows. Wipe excess grease off the pad shim and brake pads. Keep grease off the brake discs and the pads. Contaminated brake discs or brake pads reduce stopping ability.
  1. Install the brake pads and pad shim correctly. Install the brake pad with the wear indicator (C) on the bottom inside. If you are reusing the brake pads, always reinstall the brake pads in their original positions to prevent a momentary loss of braking efficiency.
