This moderately difficult job takes 4-5 hours and costs $600+. A professional may charge from $1,500+.

This job requires a ratchet and socket set, hub-puller, torque wrench, breaker bar, C-clamp, hydraulic floor jack and jack stands, an off-set 12 millimeter wrench, and an assistant.

If you need to replace the calipers, you will need to drain or siphon the brake fluid from the master cylinder and bleed the brake lines before jacking up the car.

Step 1 – Jack up car

Loosen the lug nuts. Jack the front end up. Set car on the jack stands and remove wheels.

Step 2 – Remove spindle nut and bolt

Use a screwdriver or a nail and hammer the spindle bolt in the void where the metal bends in to make it form a circle so you can pull it off.

Use a 36 mm socket and long handled ratchet to remove the bolt. An air ratchet is optimal.

Have someone depress the brake pedal while you wrench on the bolt and complete Step 3.

Step 3 – Loosen four flange bolts on hub

Break free the four flange bolts on the front of the hub.

Step 4 – Remove two caliper housing bolts and caliper

Use a deep-well socket to work around the brake lines. Remove the bolts, and the caliper will come right off.

Set the caliper aside if it is still good and doesn’t need replacing. Otherwise, you’ll install the new caliper after the rotors are replaced.

If you are going to replace the calipers, you’ll need to bleed the lines at this point. You can use the small vice grips to minimize the amount of fluid to bleed. Use a C-clamp or large channel locks to compress the caliper pistons and force the fluid out the bleeder valve into your container.

In order to replace the caliper, disconnect the brake line by removing the banjo bolt.

Step 5 – Pull caliper bracket

Two bolts hold the caliper bracket in place. When you are removing them, loosen them both first; then, remove the bottom bolt before removing the top bolt, and the entire bracket will pull right off.

Step 6- Remove four rear hub bolts

There are four 12 mm bolts on the rear of the hub that need to be removed. Use an offset wrench. You will have to push the drive shaft protector away to get the wrench in there, and you may need to use some WD-40 or other spray lubricant to help get those bolts loose.

Step 7 – Remove hub

Place the hub-puller over two lug nut screws and screw those two lug nuts back on.
Put the hub puller cross-member on and screw that center bolt down until the hub and wheel bearing pop off.

Step 8 – Grease the wheel bearing and axle end

With the hub pulled, now is the perfect time to give the wheel bearings and axle ends a little TLC. If they are rusty, get some 800-grit sandpaper and get rid of as much rust as possible. Once that is cleaned up, use some multi-purpose grease and lube the wheel bearing, axle, and housing.
Replace the four rear hub bolts.

Step 9 – Put the new rotor onto the hub

Make sure that you are putting the rotor back onto the hub in the correct direction.

Step 10 – Re-install the rotor and hub unit onto the bearing and axle end

Line up the four bolts from the rear of the hub unit with the hub assembly so you can get a bite on those bolts. You will have to play with the bearing to get it in and get those bolts to bite.
Once those bolts get a good bite and are in well, use a rubber mallet and hit the assembly in place until it is in there well. Tighten those four back bolts and use the mallet to hit it some more.

Step 11 – Assemble the new pads and calipers

The hardest part is over. Now it’s time to reassemble everything. Put your new pads into the new calipers. It may be easier to get the calipers back on to the rotor and then install the new pads.

Step 12 – Re-install caliper bracket and calipers

Put the caliper bracket back in place as well as the housing. Wiggle the housing on the rotor, sliding it up and down until the bolt bites. Tighten all the caliper and caliper housing bolts and then torque them to specifications. If you haven’t installed the new brake pads, do so now before you tighten and torque the housing bolts.

Step 13 – Re-install the spindle nut and wheels

You are almost finished. Put the spindle nut back on and use a screwdriver to deform it back into the void part of the drive shaft. Tighten down the spindle nut to at least where the end of the shaft meets the end of the spindle nut. Actual specifications call for about 181 ft.-lbs. of torque.

You will need your helper to step on the brake pedal before tightening. Keep pressing on the brake while you put the tires back on and tighten the lug nuts.
Lower the car off the jack stands and torque down the lug nuts.
