Step-by-step perfectly fitting replacement brakes

We regularly publish product information and technical installation tips on our company blog drive! and our facebook page.

1. Raise the vehicle and disassemble the wheel.

2. Release the brake calliper and remove the brake pads. Attention: when replacing brake discs, always replace the brake pads with them and replace all brake discs/brake pads on the respective axle!

3. Ensure adequate strain relief for the brake hoses and securely fix the brake calliper in place on a steering or suspension part.

4. Remove the brake disc and check the brake components for damage, replacing them if necessary.

5. Clean and/or remove rust from the contact surface using a wheel hub grinder intended for this purpose. The wheel hub must not be damaged when doing so!

6. Now mount the new, perfectly fitting Herth+Buss brake disc onto the wheel hub. The new brake disc must be completely free of grease to ensure that the braking power is not compromised later on. Please note: it is not necessary to clean the brake disc or remove the coating before installation! After performing the repair, the vehicle should be braked hard four to five times from around 50 - 60 km/h during a test drive to remove the coating from the brake discs.

7. Now mount the brake calliper bracket.

8. Before resetting the brake pistons with a suitable reset tool in the next step, you should first check the brake fluid level and extract a little of the fluid if necessary. Please be sure to observe the manufacturer’s instructions when resetting the pistons!

9. Apply a high-temperature-resistant, non-metallic permanent lubricant to the contact and guide surfaces of the brake calliper brackets and the brake pads.

10. Now insert the new brake pads from the Jakoparts product range. The brake pads can be installed with the greatest of ease thanks to the assignment of precisely fitting parts.

11. As a final step, mount the brake calliper and fully tighten the bolts using a torque wrench. Observe the manufacturer’s instructions for this step as well! Following this, the wheel can be installed.
