To install, lubricate the caliper mounting bolts, install the upper and lower anti-rattle clips, and install the outer and inner pads. Position the caliper and tighten the mounting bolt. Install the wheel, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts. Finally, apply and release the brake pedal, check the fluid level, and test the brakes before driving.

To remove and replace brake pads, start by removing the cap from the brake fluid reservoir and using a suction gun to remove two-thirds of the fluid. Then, loosen the wheel lug nuts, raise the vehicle, and support it securely on jackstands. Remove the front or rear wheels and inspect the brake disc. If machining is necessary, remove the disc, calipers, and pads. For front pad removal, wash the brake assembly with brake system cleaner and push the piston back into the bore using a C-clamp. Remove the bottom caliper mounting bolt, pivot the caliper up, and remove the inner and outer brake pads. Remove and inspect the anti-rattle clips. To install, lubricate the caliper mounting bolts, install the upper and lower anti-rattle clips, and install the outer and inner pads. Position the caliper and tighten the mounting bolt. Install the wheel, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts. Finally, apply and release the brake pedal, check the fluid level, and test the brakes before driving. For rear pad removal, wash the brake assembly, remove the parking brake cable, and remove the lower caliper mounting bolt. Pivot the caliper up and remove the pads and retainers. To install, apply anti-squeal compound on the backing plates, rotate the piston, install the pad anti-rattle clips, and install the new pads. Lubricate the caliper guide pin, pivot the caliper down, and install the mounting bolt. Reconnect the parking brake cable, install the wheel, lower the vehicle, and tighten the lug nuts. Apply and release the brake pedal, check the fluid level, and test the brakes.

Install the brake pads on the opposite wheel, then install the wheels and lower the vehicle. Add brake fluid to the reservoir until it's full. Pump the brakes several times to seat the pads against the disc, then check the fluid level again. Check the operation of the brakes before driving the vehicle in traffic. Try to avoid heavy brake applications until the brakes have been applied lightly several times to seat the pads.

Work on one brake assembly at a time, positioning a drain pan underneath and cleaning the caliper and surrounding area with brake system cleaner. Use a C-clamp to push the piston back into its bore, being careful not to overflow the fluid in the master cylinder.

Work on one brake assembly at a time. Push the piston back into the caliper bore to provide room for the new brake pads. A C-clamp can be used to accomplish this. Remove the C-clamp. Remove the two caliper mounting bolts. Lift the caliper off the disc and remove the outer pad. Pull the inner pad out of the caliper and remove it. Fasten the caliper out of the way with a piece of wire to prevent damage to the brake hose. Remove the mounting bolt seals, then use a scribe or similar tool to extract the rubber bushings from inside the caliper ears. Clean the caliper and mounting bolts and check them for corrosion and damage. Replace the bolts with new ones if they're significantly corroded or damaged.

On older models, remove the caliper mounting bolts and lift the caliper off the disc, removing the outer and inner pads.
