Sierra 3500 Denali 4WD V8-6.0L (2011)
Note: Do not remove the brake caliper guide pins unless replacement is required.
3. Remove the brake caliper bracket bolts (1).
Caution: Support the brake caliper with heavy mechanic wire, or equivalent, whenever it is separated from its mount and the hydraulic flexible
brake hose is still connected. Failure to support the caliper in this manner will cause the flexible brake hose to bear the weight of the caliper, which
may cause damage to the brake hose and in turn may cause a brake fluid leak.
4. Remove the brake caliper and bracket assembly and support with heavy mechanics wire or equivalent.
5. Remove the rear axle hub. Refer to Rear Axle Hub, Bearing, Cup, and/or Seal Replacement (See: Transmission and Drivetrain/Drive Axles,
Bearings and Joints/Axle Bearing/Service and Repair/Rear Axle Hub, Bearing, Cup, and/or Seal Replacement).
Note: It is not necessary to remove the bearings and cups from the hub unless replacement is required.
6. Remove the rotor and hub assembly (1).
7. If installing the original brake rotor, mark the relationship of the rotor to the hub.
