caliper overhaul
8
Inspect the caliper pistons for damage and replace them if
necessary. Apply a small amount of DOT 5.1 fluid to the
circumference of each piston. Reinstall the pistons into each half of
the caliper body. Wipe any excess fluid from the caliper halves.
There are two larger diameter pistons and two smaller diameter
pistons. Install one of each into each caliper half.
You can also use Avid DOT Grease or DOT 5.1 or 4 compatible
grease as a lubricant.

Remove the banjo port o-ring from the outboard caliper half.
10
Remove the o-rings from the banjo bolt and banjo fitting. Apply a
small amount of DOT 5.1 fluid to the new o-rings and install them.
