Hey everyone, quick and stupid question I am not seeing an obvious answer or video to and just want to be sure. Is the order of the rear caliper supposed to be as follows from inside to outside:
These are 914-6 Calipers from PMB with associated rotors, pads, and hardware. Bolt->washer-> bracket for dust shield->caliper-> trailing arm? Was planning on using blue locktite and torqueing to 50 ft/lbs. Attaching photos to help illustrate. Waiting on my rotor retaining screws as well so if you notice them missing, thats why. If you see anything funky please let me know!  |

Darn it! its okay it needs to come back off anyway but good to know I must have had the bracket for dust shield on backwards or something then. I updated the vin info- hopefully that gives some decent history of the car. |

No need for blue loctite. Use new wave washers. Good luck pm getting a torque wrench on the upper caliper bolt.

Have new waves, fixed order of install, no blue loctite and its 'good and tight' no chance I could get a wrench as you mentioned! Thank you everyone |
