The front brake flexible hose installation process should be performed identically on both LH and RH sides but the upcoming steps pertain to the LH side. Install the flexible hose by connecting new gaskets with a union bolt to the disc brake cylinder. Also verify the flexible hose identification color. The torque setting for the union bolt is 29.4 Nm. Keeping a torque of 29.4 Nm (300 kgf-cm, 22 ft-lbf) is necessary for this connection. The flexible hose lock needs installation into the lock hole of the cylinder before setting the flexible hose clamp on the flexible hose bracket. Hook part A of the sensor clamp should hang from flexible hose bracket C simultaneously while hook part B should enter flexible hose bracket D. Use a torque wrench to tighten the bolt (labeled C) to 18.5 Nm (189 kgf-cm, 14 ft-lbf) for fixing the flexible hose clamp and sensor clamp before installing the flexible hose with the bolt (labeled D) at exactly the same torque. Attach the flexible hose to its connecting point with the brake tube (A) while using a new clip (B). Follow Step 10 of SMR: Brake/Master Cylinder Replacement. Special Service Tool 09023-00101 helps during the process by attaching the flexible hose to brake tube (A) while using a wrench for light torquing that reaches 15.2 Nm (155 kgf-cm, 11 ft-lbf) without the tool or 14 Nm (144 kgf-cm, 10 ft-lbf) with tool assistance. Apply extreme caution when attaching the brake tubes because curving the tube should be prohibited and the connection point needs protection from foreign substances. Fill the reservoir with brake fluid and bleed the
Brake Master Cylinder and brake line and ABS and traction actuator assembly to remove air before inspecting the fluid level along with checking for leaks then install the front wheel at 103 Nm (1,050 kgf-cm, 76 ft-lbf).
