NOTE: Before proceeding, (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - WARNING) (Refer to 5 - BRAKES - CAUTION).
1. Raise and support the vehicle. (Refer to LUBRICATION & MAINTENANCE/HOISTING - STANDARD PROCE-
DURE)
2. Remove the wheel mounting nuts (3), then the tire
and wheel assembly.
NOTE: In some cases, it may be necessary to retract the caliper piston in its bore a small amount in order
to provide sufficient clearance between the pads and the rotor to easily remove the caliper from the
knuckle. This can usually be accomplished before the guide pin bolts are removed, by grasping the inboard
side of the caliper and pulling outward working with the guide pins, thus retracting the piston. Never push
on the piston directly as it may get damaged.
