8. Remove the lower brake caliper guide pin bolt (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.
Note: DO NOT disconnect the flexible brake hose from the brake caliper.
9. Rotate the brake caliper (2) upward until it rests on the brake caliper mounting bracket and support with heavy mechanics wire or equivalent.
Note: If installing the original brake pads, mark the position of the inner and outer brake pads for proper installation.
10. Remove the brake pads (3).
Note:
*
If installing the original brake pads and spring clips, mark the position of the pads and spring clips for proper installation.
*
If installing new brake pads, install new pad spring clips. Do not reuse the old brake pad spring clips with new brake pads.
11. Remove the brake pad spring clips (4) from the mounting bracket (5).
12. Thoroughly clean the pad hardware mating surfaces of the caliper bracket of any corrosion or debris with denatured alcohol and allow to dry.
Note: Use care when cleaning the brake caliper pistons to avoid damaging the piston dust seals.
13. If installing new brake pads, thoroughly clean the brake caliper piston faces and caliper housing to brake pad contact surfaces of all disc brake pad
insulator adhesive residue with denatured alcohol and allow to dry.
