Take out the wheel. |
For Honda Prelude 88, it needs impact screwdriver to disassemble the brake disk. Carefully not to damage the screws. |
Loosen the bolts sized 12 to remove the caliper. |
FBK brand. The cheap brake pad will produce more dusk and not last longer. |
Another bolts sized 14 to remove the caliper bracket. |
The disk can be removed. |
Need to send both front brake disk to machine shop. New brake pad and new skimmed disk. Really worth it. |
Brake disk removed. |
Method I used to take out the piston was by pressing the brake pedal slowly. Until the brake fluid leaking. |
After leaking, use this tool to lock the brake hose. |
No Bedding In |
To save time, i sent both brake disk to machine shop first. While waiting, i do other tasks. |
1000 Sand paper grade and old toothbrush. |
Cleaned. |
Clean as good as you can as long no big rust to prevent the piston seal from seated properly. |
Put some light grease. |
Make sure the seal seated evenly. |
The hardest part. Need patient to figure out how to put piston in. |
I created this thing. Make sure the end is not sharp. It can hurts outer dusk cover. |
Hold left circled part first and slowly expand the rubber dusk cover. |
If you have friend, ask him to hold 2 points while you expand the rubber. |
DONE!!! If the piston is hard to pushed in, put some HW40 from the hose hole. |
Looks better. Like new brake disk. |
Dont forget to service these part. Replace if you can find new boot. |
Bleeding to remove trapped air. |
Top up the brake fluid during piston removal and bleeding. Good luck! |
