(1) Clean brakeshoe mounting ledge slide surfaces
of steering knuckle with wire brush. Then apply light
coat of Mopar multi-mileage grease to slide surfaces.
Lubricate mounting bolts and bushings with GE 661
or Dow 111 silicone grease (Fig. 31).
(2) Install inboard shoe in caliper and verify shoe
retaining springs are fully seated into the piston.
(3) Install outboard shoe in caliper by starting one
end of shoe in caliper and rotating shoe downward
into place. Verify shoe locating lugs and shoe spring
are seated.
(4) Install caliper by position notches at lower end
of brakeshoes on bottom mounting ledge. Then install
caliper over rotor and seat upper ends of brakeshoes
on top mounting ledge (Fig. 32).

Fig. 32 Caliper Installation
CAUTION: Before securing the caliper, be sure the
caliper brake hose is not twisted, kinked or touch-
ing any chassis components.
(5) Install and tighten caliper mounting bolts to
10-20 N·m (7-15 ft. lbs.).
CAUTION: If new caliper bolts are being installed,
or if reason for repair was a drag/pull condition,
check caliper bolt length. If the bolts have a shank
length greater than 67.6 mm (2.66 in.), they will con-
tact the inboard brakeshoe causing a partial apply
condition. Refer to (Fig. 33) for correct caliper bolt
length.
(6) Install wheel and tire assemblies.
