Brake Rotor Replacement-Rear

Brake Rotor Replacement-Rear

^ Tools Required
- J42450-A Hub Cleaning Kit

Removal Procedure

1. Raise and support the vehicle. Refer to Vehicle Lifting.
2. Remove the tire and wheel.

Notice: Support the brake caliper with heavy mechanic's wire, or equivalent, whenever it is separated from it's 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.

3. Remove the brake caliper bracket with the brake caliper. Do Not disconnect the hydraulic brake flex hose from the caliper.





4. Remove the brake rotor.

Installation Procedure

1. Clean any corrosion from the brake rotor flange.
2. Use the J42450-A in order to clean the hub flange.





3. Install the brake rotor.
4. Install the brake caliper bracket with the brake caliper.
5. Install the tire and wheel.
6. Lower the vehicle.
7. If the brake rotor was refinished, or if a new brake rotor was installed, burnish the brake pads and brake rotors.
