Removal and Installation
1. Remove the brake caliper anchor plate.
2. Note: If the brake disc will not come off, lubricate the brake disc where it contacts the hub assembly using Rust Penetrant and Inhibitor
F2AZ-19A501-A or equivalent meeting Ford specification ESR-M99C56-A. Strike the disc between the wheel bolts with a plastic hammer. If this
does not work, attach 2 - 3 Jaw Puller 205-D027 (D80L-1013-A) or equivalent and remove the brake disc.
Note: If excessive force must be used during disc removal, the disc must be checked for runout.
Remove the pushnuts, if necessary, and the brake disc.
3. To install, reverse the removal procedure.
