Removal Procedure

2. Remove the tire and wheel assembly.

Support the brake caliper with heavy mechanic's 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.

NOT disconnect the hydraulic brake hose from the caliper.
