DON’T SWEAT THE INSTALL: MGP CALIPER COVERS DIY INSTALLATION GUIDE

DIY Installation Steps

Safety First

Before you begin, ensure you’re working on a flat, stable surface. Wear protective gloves and safety glasses to avoid any potential harm.

Prepare the Vehicle

Start by engaging the parking brake. Use the jack to lift your vehicle off the ground and secure it with jack stands. Once the vehicle is securely lifted, remove the wheels using the tire iron or wrench. This step gives you access to the brake calipers.

Clean and Inspect

With the wheels removed, wipe down your brake calipers with a clean cloth to remove any dirt or debris. This is also a good opportunity to inspect your brake components for any signs of wear or damage. Ensuring the calipers are clean and in good condition is crucial for a smooth installation.

Test Fit

Before securing the caliper covers, place them over your brake calipers to ensure a proper fit. It’s essential that the cover doesn’t touch the brake rotor or any other brake parts. This preliminary step helps you avoid any issues during the final installation.

Install The Caliper Cover

Align the caliper cover over the brake caliper. Using the provided clips, secure the cover in place. The clips should fit snugly, holding the cover securely. After the cover is in place, double-check to ensure it isn’t touching the brake rotor or interfering with any other components.

Reinstall Your Wheels

Once the caliper covers are securely in place, it’s time to reinstall your wheels. Place the wheels back onto the hub and hand-tighten the lug nuts onto the bolts in a crisscross pattern. Lower your vehicle from the jack stands, and then use a torque wrench to tighten the lug nuts to the manufacturer’s recommended torque settings. Properly torquing the lug nuts is crucial for safety and performance.

Test Drive

Before hitting the road, take a short test drive. Listen for any unusual sounds and ensure that your brakes function properly. This test drive helps confirm that the caliper covers are installed correctly and that everything is functioning as it should. If everything sounds and feels right, congratulations! You’ve successfully installed your MGP Caliper Covers.

Tips for Maintenance

To keep your MGP Caliper Covers looking their best, clean them regularly with mild soap and water. Avoid using aggressive chemicals or brushes that might damage the finish. Periodically check the clips and covers for signs of wear or damage to ensure they remain secure and in good condition.
