Hi, I'm Don from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the rear brakes on this 2006 Jeep Liberty and we'll show you on the passenger side but the driver side is a similar procedure. The items you'll need for this are a new brake pad and rotor kit from 1AAuto.com, flat blade screwdriver, 13mm and 19mm socket and ratchet, a torque wrench, jack and jack stands, a wire brush, brake cleaner, brake grease, and a large C-clamp.
If you have a wheel cover, you want to start off by removing it. If you don't have air-powered tools you want to loosen up these 19mm lug nuts while the vehicle's on the ground. Jack the vehicle up and then remove them the rest of the way.
Check your rotor for any deep gauges or indents. Ours is actually in decent condition. Then you want to check these brake pads. You can see we have a lot of life on ours.
Now, just remove these two 13mm bolts. Using a flat blade screwdriver, pry in on the caliper piston and this will make it easier to lift the caliper up and off, and now pry the caliper up, and then set it aside. Then pry out these brake pads. You just have to pry up the clips and then push them out of the caliper, and now your rotor just slides right off.
On the right, is the old rotor and brake pads. On the left, are the new ones from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they're going to mount exactly the same. Using brake cleaner, just wipe down your new rotor and then apply some brake grease to the tabs on either ends of your brake pads. Use a wire brush to clean up the brake pad slides.
Now, use a large C-clamp to push the caliper piston back down into place, and as you tighten it up, we will just push the piston down flat. You want to check these caliper slides, and if there isn't enough grease on them, so they're not moving freely, just fill it up right there. Then slide your new rotor into place, and then put your brake pads into your caliper. Now, when you replace your caliper you want to push the top part in first, and then the bottom. You want to make sure at the same that the caliper is going over the slides. As you can see, right here, he's checking the sides, making sure the caliper is going to go down over those. We're going to push this into place. Then, we're just going to fast forward here, as he replaces those two 13mm bolts and tighten them up to 20 to 25 foot-pounds.
We'll fast forward as Don's replacing the wheel and those lug nuts. Then, you want to tighten them up, preliminarily lower the vehicle and tighten them up the rest of the way. Then torque each of them in a crossing pattern to a 100 foot-pounds, and if you have a wheel cover replace it.Then repeat all that for the other side. You always want to do the brakes in pairs.
Then get in, pump your brakes a bunch of times and make sure you have a good solid pedal before you go out and road test the vehicle. Also, just do stops from five to ten miles an hour. Make sure the brake's working.

Here are the items you'll need for this repair: 10-19mm sockets, ratchet, breaker bar, large flat blade screwdriver, hammer, wire brush, paper towels, brake cleaner, brake grease, large c-clamp, torque wrench, jack, jack stands
With the vehicle on the ground, 19 millimeter socket or your tire iron and loosen up your lug nuts. Raise and support the vehicle. You can use a jack and jack stands. We are using a lift. Remove the lug nuts the rest of the way, and remove the wheel and tire.
Use a large screwdriver, insert it here, and pry out to push the piston back into caliper. This'll help you get it apart easier. There's two 10 millimeter bolts to remove: one down here and one up here. Use a wrench or socket and ratchet to remove those. Once those bolts are out, use your wrench or your screwdriver and pry the caliper out. Set these bolts aside and then the outer pad, you have to push it out and then pry up. I'm pushing this way and then prying up and the pad comes out and the inner pad just pulls right out. You can either secure your caliper with a bungee or just make sure that you don't stress the brake hose.
Remove the disc. It should just pull off. There’s a lot of corrosion, so we're expecting a little bit of a fight. I'll put a lug nut on just to make sure it doesn't fly too far. If you're going to reuse your disc, you don't want to hit it with a hammer. We're going to be replacing this one, so we're not that worried about it.
You've got your original brake shoes and new ones from 1A Auto—they're all the same. They’re going to install exactly the same. If you're inspecting your old ones, this little mark here is a wear mark, so if it's gone, as it is on these pads, you know you need to replace your pad. See the new ones, nice large wear mark, so you know that they're in good shape. Rotors here: the original one and new one from 1A Auto. It’s exactly the same, has the provision on the back for the emergency brake, and will install just like the original. We're going to just preliminarily install our rotor.
Okay, and then we want to adjust our brake shoes so that there's some tension between the brake shoes and the rotor. Right now, it's very loose. So the best way to adjust is just use something, push up on the spring a little bit, and then you can just adjust out. Make sure as you turn it that you're expanding the gap between here and the adjuster shoe. You can feel a little bit of tension between the shoe and the disc, then I'll just do it a little bit more.
Okay, good tension, not too much movement, and now it's a little difficult to pull off, so I know I have the tension right. Brake parts cleaner clean off the surface of the shoes. Then the same thing, brake parts cleaner, clean out the surface of the rotor and install the rotor. Clean the rotor surface and the backside.
Use a wire brush and clean your slides here. If your car does have a lot of rust, you may want to pull these off and chip away at the cast iron underneath. A lot of times, what happens on these vehicles is that they rust. These expand and may cause binding in the brake shoes. If they don't look clean or if they look bowed out at all, you'll want to take them apart and make sure there's no rust built up underneath.
Use some silicone brake grease and grease these slides on the top and bottom. You want to reset the piston into your caliper so put your old shoe back in. This gives you a better point to press on. Big c-clamp and push it all the way back in. And you want to make sure that your bolt slides are in good shape and free and as long as they are you can put them back together. If not, you can pull them right out, clean them up, and use some silicone brake grease and reassemble them. We put some grease on the back of our pads, put the inner one in first and now push it into place. And then the outer one slides down and on. I need to pull those out just a little bit.
Make sure your bolt slides are all the way out, they'll get hung up otherwise. Put the top into place and put it down on and put your bolts back in. Tighten the caliper bolts to 24 foot-pounds. Reinstall your wheel and tire. Put the vehicle back on the ground, you want to tighten your lug nuts to 100 foot-pounds using a star pattern. Any time you work on your brakes, before you go out and test drive just pump them a few times, make sure you have a nice firm pedal before testing.
