你所需要的

视频概述

    • Loosen the lugnuts. Use a breaker bar if necessary.

    • 21mm socket.

    • Lift the car. Secure the car with safety stands and tire chucks/blocks.

    • Remove the wheel and set aside.

    • Pull on the caliper to compress the piston, so it will slide off when you remove it.

    • Loosen the caliper slide bolts.

    • 14mm wrench for the caliper slide bolt head. You will need to use a 17mm thin open wrench to hold the nut that sits inside, if it is sliding when you try to loosen the 14mm head. You may need to tap on the wrench with soft mallet if it is tight.

    • Use a bungee cord or S hook to hang the caliper from the shocks, to keep weight off the brake line.

    • Use one of the lug nuts to keep the rotor from accidentally falling.

    • Slide the pads out.

    • Remove 2 17mm bolts that hold the caliper bracket on and remove the remaining caliper hardware.

    • Remove the Rotor

    • If it is rusted on, you can use 2 small threaded bolts to push into the small holes and against the hub to remove the rotor. Or if you are replacing the rotor, you can hit it with a hammer to loosen it up.

    • If the hub is really rusty, make sure to clean it with a wire brush.

    • Put new rotor on backwards and clean off oil it ships with with brake parts cleaner, wiping any excess off with a paper towel. Reverse the rotor and repeat cleaning on the correct side.

    • Clean off brake caliper hardware to reuse.

    • Coat bottom edge of caliper tins with a small amount of anti-seize grease. Coat caliper bracket with grease where the tins sit.

    • Just paint the caliper with grease. You don't want tons of it or for it to build up too thick.

    • Remove caliper slide bolts and apply grease if it is binding up or you can feel it grinding when you twist and pull it out. Apply grease to the flat spots liberally. Replace by twisting the bolt back in to coat the grease.

    • Install the top caliper bracket bolt first (17mm head). This will make the bottom one easier to line up.

    • Put a tiny amount of grease on the ears of the brake pad.

    • Make sure the surface of the brake pad is clean.

    • Put new brake pads in. Fit bottom ear in first to help line up the top. Attach spring hardware to the brake pads.

    • Inside and outside pads are identical.

    • Compress the caliper piston with a C clamp and the old brake pad so it will fit the new brake pads.

    • Fit caliper piston onto rotor and reinstall caliper slide bolts to the bracket. Torque the caliper mounting bracket bolts to 79 ft/lbs. Don't forget to remove the bungee cord or S hook you used to hang the caliper piston. Make sure the rotor surface is clean.

    • Put the wheel back on.

    • Make sure taper of lug nut is toward the wheel.

    • Snug up the lug nuts in a star pattern with a ratchet wrench or lug wrench.

    • Lower car and Torque lugnuts to 76 ft/lbs in a star pattern. If you don't have a torque wrench, hand tighten as much as possible with the lug wrench.

    • Get in the car and pump the break pedal about a quarter of the way 15-20 times to return pressure to the caliper piston. You should feel the pedal firm up.

    • Don't forget to remove the tire chucks/blocks.

结论

Repeat for other side.
