NOTE: PERFORMANCE PACKAGE SHO'S ARE NOT INCLUDED IN THIS PROCEDURE.



The Taurus SHO with the Performance Package is equipped with performance brake pads.

NOTE: IF BRAKE DISC REPLACEMENT IS REQUIRED VERIFY IF YOUR DEALERSHIP IS ON THE DIGITAL IMAGING PROGRAM WHICH WILL REQUIRE PRIOR APPROVAL BEFORE REPLACING BRAKE DISCS. DO NOT REMOVE THE DULL GREY COATING ON THE NEW BRAKE DISCS; IT IS CORROSION PROTECTION.



NOTE: IT IS IMPORTANT THAT THE INNER AND OUTER BRAKING SURFACES OF THE BRAKE DISCS BE COMPLETELY CLEANED OF ANY METAL DUST, DIRT AND GREASE USING MOTORCRAFT® METAL BRAKE PARTS CLEANER AND A CLEAN RAG.



Measure the thickness of the front brake discs.
If the minimum thickness is over 28.5 mm (1.122") resurface them using an on-vehicle brake lathe, Refer to Workshop Manual (WSM), Section 206-00.
It is very important that all of the machining material has been removed from the front brake discs before installing the caliper and pads.
If the minimum thickness is equal to or less than 28.5 mm (1.122"). Replace the front brake disc, refer to WSM, Section 206-03.
Clean caliper anchor plate mounting surfaces, caliper anchor brackets and bolts of machining material. Refer to WSM, Section 206-03.
Replace the front brake pads. Refer to WSM, Section 206-03.
NOTE: FAILURE TO APPLY THE GREASE MAY RESULT IN UNACCEPTABLE BRAKE NOISE AT LOWER SPEEDS UNDER LIGHT BRAKING.



NOTE: GREASE SHOULD NOT BE APPLIED TO OTHER COMPONENTS LIKE PINS OR SHIMS. DURING BRAKE INSPECTION, LOOK FOR FOREIGN OBJECTS TRAPPED BETWEEN THE DUST SHIELD AND ROTOR. THESE CAN CAUSE NOISE DURING BRAKING AND OFF-BRAKE CONDITIONS.
