Rear Brake Caliper: Removal

  1. Raise and support vehicle. Disconnect front parking brake cable from rear cables at equalizer. Mark wheel in relation to hub. Remove wheel. Install and finger-tighten 2 lug nuts with flat side toward rotor to hold rotor when caliper is removed.
  2. If not completely removing caliper (such as for overhaul), go to next step. If completely removing caliper, remove bolt securing brake hose to caliper. Discard old gaskets. Disconnect brake hose from caliper. Plug opening in brake hose and caliper to prevent fluid loss and contamination.
  3. Remove and discard upper and lower caliper guide pin bolts. Remove caliper and wire aside.
