Front Brake Rotor: Removal

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2002 Pontiac Montana, 2002 Oldsmobile Silhouette, and 2002 Chevrolet Venture. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Raise and support the vehicle. Remove the tire and wheel. Install a C-clamp over the top of the brake caliper and against the back of the outboard brake pad. Tighten the C-clamp until the brake caliper piston pushes into the brake caliper bore enough to slide the brake caliper off of the rotor. Remove the C-clamp from the brake caliper.
  2. Remove the brake caliper bracket with the brake caliper leaving the Hydraulic flex hose connected. Use a strap or heavy gage wire in order to support the brake caliper and the brake caliper bracket. Remove the brake rotor.
