* Some brake pads have retainer wires that may interfere with proper caliper cover installation. Use pliers to bend and flatten these wires so that they do not protrude past the front of the caliper. This will not damage or affect your brakes.
1 Place the caliper cover on the brake caliper. Cover should be centered across the front. Caliper cover bridges should be positioned against the brake caliper bracket.
2 Slide the stainless steel clips over the bridges and caliper brackets and around the threaded studs to fasten the cover. Fit should be snug and secure.
3 Install the supplied locknuts onto the threaded studs to secure clip to bridge. Tighten with 3/8-inch wrench or socket to 25 inch pounds. Over tightening could pull stud through aluminum bridge.
4 Important! - Use feeler gauge or the included paper strip to check clearance between clip and brake rotor. A gap of at least .013 inch (.32 mm) is recommended (enough to slide the paper strip in and out without sticking). Re-install wheel and tighten lugnuts per manufacturer's specification.
