Thus, while beginning with work, make sure that you are aware of the correct precautions and the warnings. If one of the discs needs to be changed, then it is better to change both at a time and simultaneously the brake pads. Starting with the front wheels to be securely chocked, the rear end to be lifted on proper jack points and then placed on suitable stands. Lift up the appropriate rear part of the car and expel the parking brake of your car. Look at the disc, if it is badly worn tighten the two bolts which hold the caliper assembly and slide off the disc. Tie the caliper to the rear suspension coil spring using wire or string so that hydraulic brake hose is not a snagging point. If necessary, release the brake hose from the lower connecting fasten for easier working position. Take out the brake disc retaining screw, and draw the rear disc off the hub. Slightly striking the back of the disc with a hide or plastic mallet if the disc is tight, will do the trick. If the
Parking Brake Shoes are binding, it should be possible to get the parking brake fully released and turn the parking brake adjustment at least a little counterclockwise to get maximum free play in the cable. Place the head of a screwdriver through one of the wheel bolt holes in the brake disc and turn the adjuster knurled wheel in such a manner that the shoes are retracted and the brake disc can be pulled out. Slide the
Brake Caliper mounting bracket back into position, put the disc over the hub, insert the retaining screw and tighten to the recommendation torque. Centre the caliper over the disc and make sure the pads are properly aligned with it, and then tighten the caliper bracket mounting bolts to the recommended torque notice. Change the parking brake shoes and cable, replace the wheel, lower it to the bottom, and tighten the bolts to the prescribed amount of pressure. Lastly, gently and firmly step on the brake pedal several times till the normal pressure and finally make sure whether the parking brake is set to the right position or not.
