Remove the four (4) bolts which affix the

Shims, if present, should be left in place if
the guide is to be reinstalled. If not, a new
shim package and realignment will be

It is extremely important to
make note of the size and
placement of shims during

removal. Failure to do so can
result in excessive piston and
liner wear due to
misalignment.
