1997 Mercury Cougar Standard Front Brake Caliper Exploded Diagram - 15 Inch Wheel

This document is an exploded parts diagram titled "Caliper -- 15 Inch Wheel," showing the disassembled components of a front disc brake caliper assembly for vehicles equipped with 15-inch wheels. The illustration uses numbered callouts 1 through 11 (with items 1 and 11 also flagged with the letter "A") pointing to individual components including what appear to be caliper mounting/guide pin bolts, pin sleeves/bushings, boots, the caliper housing, a pad retention spring/clip, the caliper piston, piston seal, dust boot, inner and outer brake pads, and the caliper anchor bracket. A note on the drawing near callout 11 states "NOTE: DO NOT REMOVE FOR CALIPER REPLACEMENT," indicating that the pin at position 11 does not need to be removed when replacing just the caliper. The figure reference number AH0284-A appears in the lower right corner. No legend or parts list identifying each numbered item by name or part number is included on this page, and no torque specifications are shown. A reader can learn the physical arrangement and assembly order of caliper components and which fastener should be left in place during caliper replacement.
