Caution: Do not move the vehicle until a firm brake pedal is obtained. Failure to obtain a firm pedal before moving vehicle may result in personal injury.

1. Raise the vehicle and support. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
2. Remove the tire and wheel assembly. Refer to Tire and Wheel Removal and Installation in Tires and Wheels.

Caution: These fasteners MUST be replaced with new fasteners anytime they become loose or are removed. Failure to replace these fasteners after they become loose or are removed may cause loss of vehicle control and personal injury.

3. Remove the guide pin bolts.




Notice: Do not allow calipers to hang from the flexible hoses. Doing so can damage the hoses.

4. Remove the brake caliper from the brake caliper mounting bracket and the brake rotor.
5. Support the brake caliper to the vehicle.

Caution: These fasteners MUST be replaced with new fasteners anytime they become loose or are removed. Failure to replace these fasteners after they become loose or are removed may cause loss of vehicle control and personal injury.




6. Remove the brake caliper mounting bracket bolts and washers.
7. Discard the brake caliper mounting bracket bolts.
8. Remove the brake caliper mounting bracket from the knuckle.
9. Clean all the bolt adhesive residue from the brake caliper mounting bracket and the knuckle mating surfaces.

1. Install the brake caliper mounting bracket to the knuckle.

Notice: Use the correct fastener in the correct location. Replacement fasteners must be the correct part number for that application. Fasteners requiring replacement or fasteners requiring the use of thread locking compound or sealant are identified in the service procedure. Do not use paints, lubricants, or corrosion inhibitors on fasteners or fastener joint surfaces unless specified. These coatings affect fastener torque and joint clamping force and may damage the fastener. Use the correct tightening sequence and specifications when installing fasteners in order to avoid damage to parts and systems.

2. Install the two new brake caliper mounting bracket bolts and washers.

The new brake caliper mounting bracket bolts will come with an adhesive already applied to the threads.
