Brake Caliper: Service and Repair
Rear
DISC BRAKE CALIPER - REAR
REMOVAL
NOTE: Handling of the rotor and caliper, must be done in such a way as to avoid damage to the rotor and scratching or nicking of lining on the brake
shoes.
1. Depress the brake pedal past its first inch of travel and hold it in this position using a brake pedal depressor (holding) tool. This is done to isolate
the master cylinder from the brake hydraulic system disallowing the brake fluid to completely drain out of the brake fluid reservoir.
2. Raise the vehicle.
3. Remove rear wheel and tire assembly from vehicle.
4. Remove the banjo bolt connecting the brake hose to the brake caliper. There are two washers (one on each side of the brake hose fitting) that will
come off with the banjo bolt. Discard these washers.
