""Off the top of my head...

First crack the lugs loose
Jack the car
Take the wheel off
For the front--remove the brake hose from where it is mounted (I think it is a 10mm?)
Unbolt the the lower part of the caliper from the bracket
Lift the caliper up and then slide if off
Remove brake pads
Apply Brake Quiet to the backside of the pads, NOT the friction side (this keeps them from squeeling)
Insert pads

The rest is the reverse of taking them off.
At least that is one version from memory""...



Ok I am trying to change the brake pads and I got the hose bracket bolts off and the caliper bolt off the front but the caliper will not come off...I dont want to pull too hard and rip the hose....how do I get it off??
