Brake Caliperss in Chevrolet Astro vehicle is used as an important aspect of the braking system since it is responsible for converting hydraulic pressure from the master cylinder in mechanical force. This force act upon the brake pads forcing it to rub or press against the rotors to slow down or stop the car. Chevrolet Astro models utilize two primary types of brake calipers: They are of two main types namely; fixed and floating. The fixed ones have pistons on either side of the rotor whereas the floating ones have a piston on one side and slide to apply pressure which can result in problem such as uneven wear of the pads if not checked periodically. Common type of calipers are often cast iron material with pistons of finished steel or phenolic. Models that options range are from the economical single thrust, piston to lighter aluminum models to suit the required driving comfort and style. Often the brake caliper requires inspection and repair due to its leaking or uneven wearing so to ensure maximum result from the brake system, it is critical to have the brake caliper checked up regularly.
Chevrolet Astro Brake Calipers Parts and Q&A
- Q: What Tools Are Required for a Brake Calipers Overhaul on Chevrolet Astro?A:The Piston seal installer tool j 26267 serves the purpose of performing brake caliper enhancements. Take out the caliper first and let all brake fluid drain from it. Put the Piston first in front of the tool as applying air pressure puts you at risk of serious injury. Only gentle air pressure should move the Piston without risking damage to a ruptured Piston unit. After cleaning the caliper bore with new towels prepare to uninstall the Piston through the bore and detach the protective boot and seal without scratching the inner walls of the caliper housing. Clean all parts including the bleeder valve by wiping them with denatured alcohol before removing any brake fluid through filtered and dried compressed air. Check if the caliper Piston and housing show surface damage or corrosion. Brushing chrome plating requires crocus cloth but the pistons demand replacement if corrosion doesn't release. Replace either the Piston or caliper unit when findings show problems. Put clean brake fluid on the new Piston seal metal parts before fitting the parts into position keeping the seal straight within its slot. Put the boot onto the Piston first then place the Piston into the caliper bore. Fit the boot into the caliper housing bore through the Piston seal installer (J 26267). Secure the bleeder valve into the caliper body while tightening it at 13 nm (115 inch lbs.). Press the brake pedal until it feels firm then check the brake fluid tank after pumping at the master cylinder before putting on the caliper.
- Q: How to replace the front brake calipers on Chevrolet Astro?A:Beginning the front brake caliper replacement requires checking brake master cylinder fluid level; when it stands at the halfway mark you do not need to remove fluid but if it exceeds that position you should lower it to the middle setting. Lift and support the vehicle before taking out the tire and wheel setup. Press the brake caliper pistons down using a c-clamp tool to hold them against the back of the outside brake pad. Use this method until all pistons are fully compressed. Clean both sides of the brake hose end and put a rubber seal or plug over the open brake pipe section to keep brake fluid in the system. Take off the brake hose to caliper bolt while discarding 2 copper gaskets that may be stuck to brake components. After that detach the brake hose from the caliper. Take out the brake caliper bolts carefully and avoid pressuring the brake pedals when all brake parts are dismounted to keep components safe. Take the brake caliper off from its mounting base. Fasten the brake caliper to its mounting bracket first and later bolt on the 2 mounting bolts while tightening them to 108 nm (80 lb ft). Install the brake hose onto the caliper bolt and thread in new copper gaskets at the brake hose fitting. Secure the brake hose to the caliper bolt with its socket. The bolt brings 40 nm (30 lb ft) resistance pressure when tightened. Follow brake bleeding steps, then put back the tire and wheel parts before bringing the vehicle down. Also refill the braking system master cylinder with new fluid.
