3. INSTRUCTIONS
3.1. Remove the road wheel, brake disc and brake calliper from the car. Next remove the calliper mounting
bracket, in some vehicles the calliper mounting bracket is a cast part of the hub.
3.2. Clean up the calliper mounting bracket and insert it in a vice.
3.3 One Thread Stripped.
3.3.1 Clean the thread that is still intact using the M9 tap. Grease the tap for lubrication.
3.3.2 Re-fit a pin into the good thread then slide the correct alignment plate for your vehicle over the pin.
3.3.3 Use the other hole on the alignment plate as a guide, drill out the damaged thread using the stepped
drill bit. Continue drilling all the way through, using the larger diameter on the drill bit to enlarge the pin
hole so a threaded insert can be used.
3.3.4 Take a threaded insert with copper washer and insert into drilled out hole. Ensure it is pushed in the
opposite end that the pin is inserted.
Note: Use some thread lock on the threaded insert.
3.3.5 Re-insert the calliper pins and tighten using the Hex key, this will seat the insert fully home.
3.3.6 Remove the pins and reassemble the brakes, refer to a proprietary manual for correct procedure.
