Important Notes:

• Brake fluid not included — fresh DOT 4 fluid required for bleed

• Inspect drums for cracks or heat scoring before reusing — kit drums are direct OE replacements if yours are out of spec
• Replacing brake hardware in pairs (both fronts, both rears) is essential for balanced braking
