step : Removing the Wheel (1:20)

• Using a flat blade screwdriver, remove your hub cap. If you don't have air tools, you'll want to loosen the lug nuts before lifting the vehicle.
• Once the lug nuts are loosened, lift the vehicle, and support it. Now you can fully remove the lug nuts, and then take the wheel off.

step : Checking the Condition of the Brakes (1:41)

• To check the condition of the brakes, you want to check how much pad you have left.
• Simply run your fingernail along the rotor to check if there are deep grooves.

step : Removing the Brake Caliper (2:25)

• Right behind the brake caliper, there are two plastic caps covering the bolts-one towards the top, and one near the bottom. Use a flat blade screwdriver to pry those caps off, then take your T45 torx bit and pull those bolts out a little further with your hands.
• Remove the small retainer by using the flat blade screwdriver to pry it off. When pulling of the caliper, use caution as the rotor has the potential to fall off as well.
• The brake pads should come out easily. The inner pad has a wear indicator on it which you'll want to disconnect by pushing on the tab
• Secure the caliper up with some wire ties.

step : Removing the Rotor (4:40)

• To remove your rotor, you first need to remove the bracket which is held on with two large bolts on the backside. These bolts are usually difficult to remove so take the 17 mm socket and ratchet, as well as a piece of pipe.

step : Replacing the Rotor (5:56)

• Place the rotor back on, and replace the bolts behind it. Torque them to 85 foot-pounds.

step : Resetting the Piston (7:07)

• Before replacing the caliper, the piston needs to be reset.
• Take a large C-Clamp, put it on and begin to tighten it. As you tighten the C-Clamp, the piston works its way back in. Tighten until you can’t tighten the C-Clamp anymore.

step : Replacing the Brake Caliper (7:57)

• First, make sure the bolts are sliding easily, and push them all the way out. Replace the outer brake pad, and slide the caliper down into place. Push the bolts into place and use your T45 torx bit to tighten them to 20 to 22 foot-pound. Put the retainer back on. Replace the retainer by hooking one end it, and then bend it down like that. If needed, tap it lightly with a wrench.
• Plug in the wear indicator, and put the two plastic plugs back over the bolts.

step : Replacing the Wheel (9:54)

• Start each lug nut by hand to make sure they thread correctly, then preliminarily tighten with an impact wrench.
• Torque these lug nuts to 100 foot-pounds using a star pattern.

step : Testing the Brakes (10:42)

• Pump the brakes after this repair BEFORE shifting the vehicle into drive.
• Perform a few test stops at anywhere from 5 to 10 miles an hour before you take it on the road.
