Okay, this is phase one of my big brake kit install. Removing the factory brakes from the car. I will describe the steps as I remove the parts in the photos below.
Brake before removal.
Remove the bolts on the caliper at the 12 and 6 o clock position on the photo below.
Bolts removed. Now remove bolts at 12 and 6 oclock postion on caliper bracket.
Remove the Bracket below.
Pads after removal.
Bracket removed.
Hardware removed up to this point.
Now remove this bolt from the rotor.
Screw/bolt removed
Hardware removed to this point.
Take a rubber hammer and beat the crap out of the rotor to get it off. It will be rusted on. WHen I say beat it, I mean beat it like your a pyscho. U gotta hit this thing hard.
If that don't work, spray on some WD40 or other penetrating oil to loosen up the rust.
And it came off showing all the rust holding it on after beating on it for 5 minutes straight.
Parts removed up to this point.
Make sure you set you caliper on something until your ready to remove it to prevent damage to your lines.
Now time to clean it up prior to reassembling with my big brake kit.
And that is it. When your ready to remove the caliper and line, just unscrew it.
Hope this helps if anyone needs the info above. Any questions just ask.
