the sensors. You can drill one - or you can simply cable tie the wires out of the way and leave them out until you put your street pads back in. Step 12: Mount the Wheel, Lower the Car, Torque the Lug Bolts, Pump the Brake Pedal NOW! Before you forget! Proper torque on our cars is about 95 ft-lbs. You should always do this in two passes, rather than tightening one bolt all the way while its neighbor is still loose. Further, you should torque every other bolt as you move around the circle - in other words, 1-3-5-2-4, not 1-2-3-4-5. To reduce the risk of overflowing the reservoir, now is a good time to pump the brake pedal until the pistons push the pads far enough to reach the wheel with no space between the piston, anti-rattle clips and rotor. Slowly depress the pedal- - it will go all the way to the floor. Release it slowly - over a few seconds, and do this again. Do not rush, just be gentle and firm. Within a few strokes you should feel the pedal firm up before it hits the floor. Pump it a few more times to be sure. If the pads you're installing have less material than the ones you removed, this will lower the brake fluid level in the reservoir.
