### Removal Procedure

1. Siphon two-thirds of the fluid from the master cylinder reservoir.
2. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Lifting and Jacking the Vehicle in General Information.
3. Remove the tire and wheel assembly. Refer to Wheel Removal in Tires and Wheels.
4. Position the C-clamp around the outer pad and caliper. Tighten the clamp until the piston bottoms in its bore.
5. Remove the two caliper mounting bolts.
6. Remove the caliper (2) from the caliper carrier. Suspend the caliper with a wire (1) in order to prevent damage to the brake hose.
7. Remove the pads (4) from the caliper carrier.
8. Remove the caliper dampener clips from the caliper carrier (1).

### Installation Procedure

1. Install two caliper dampener clips to the caliper carrier (1).

3. Lubricate the caliper pins (3) with silicone grease.
4. Install the 2 caliper pins (3) with the boots to the caliper carrier (1).

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.

5. Install the caliper (2) to the caliper carrier (3). Secure with two caliper mounting bolts.

Tighten
Tighten the caliper mounting bolts to 30 N·m (22 lb ft).

6. Install the tire and wheel assembly. Refer to Wheel Installation in Tires and Wheels.
7. Lower the vehicle.
8. Fill the master cylinder fluid reservoir. Refer to Master Cylinder Reservoir Filling in Hydraulic Brakes.
