Front Brake Caliper: Removal

Raise and support vehicle. Remove wheel and tire assembly. Disconnect brakeline from caliper. See Figure. Plug brakeline to prevent fluid spillage. Remove caliper mounting bolts or slide pins if necessary. Remove caliper from torque plate.

NOTE: Pushing piston into caliper bore forces fluid back into master cylinder reservoir. Remove reservoir cap when compressing piston.
