- DOT 3 or 4 Brake Fluid. Check manufactures' recommendation for compatibility. StopTech recom-
mends flushing brake fluid every 1-2 years, or more often under severe usage conditions. If not done
recently, the installation of a brake kit is an excellent opportunity to refresh your brake fluid.
Additional items you may need include:
- Adhesive backed lead wheel weights
Caliper, Hat and Bracket Finish Disclaimer:
Many wheel-cleaning solutions contain strong acids that may damage the finish on
any caliper and aluminum anodized finish, especially the plating on the hardware.
Check for adverse effects by trying a small amount of the cleaner in question on an
inconspicuous area. Avoid over spraying, and rinse cleaning solutions off as quickly
as possible. STOPTECH will not be held liable for damage to caliper, hat or bracket
finish due to corrosive chemical exposure.
A level, stable and clean surface suitable for supporting the
car on jack-stands should be used for the installation.
Step 1

Apply Parking brake and block rear wheels.
Break loose the lug nuts on both front wheels before jacking up the car.
Refer to the Owners Manual for correct location for jacking up the vehicle. Jack up the vehicle

ALWAYS USE JACK STANDS.
