  1. Apply a thin coat of M-77 assembly paste (P/N 08798-   9010) to the pad side of the shims (A), the back of the brake pads (B), and the other areas indicated by the arrows. Wipe off the excess assembly paste from the pad shims and brake pads friction material. Keep grease and assembly paste away from the brake disc and brake pads. Contaminated brake disc or brake pads reduce stopping ability.
