Loosen the front wheel lug nuts 1/4-turn, raise the front of the vehicle and support it securely on jackstands. Apply the parking brake. Remove the front wheels. Using a syringe or equivalent, siphon approximately two-thirds of the fluid from the master cylinder reservoir and discard it. Position a drain pan under the brake assembly and clean the caliper and surrounding area with brake system cleaner. Push the piston back into its bore using a C-clamp. As the piston is depressed to the bottom of the caliper bore, the fluid in the master cylinder will rise as the brake fluid is displaced. Make sure it doesn't overflow. If necessary, siphon off more of the fluid. To replace the brake pads, remove the front brake caliper by removing the two guide pin bolts. Lift the caliper off the steering knuckle and remove the outer pad from the caliper. Remove the inner pad from the caliper. If you're not going to reinstall the caliper any time soon, hang it from the upper control arm with a piece of wire or equivalent - don't let it hang by the brake hose. Remove the guide pin bushings. Remove the bushing boots, inspect them for damage and replace if necessary. Lubricate the guide pin bushings with multi-purpose grease before installing them. Apply an anti-squeal compound to the backs of the pads where they mate with the caliper and piston. Install the inner brake pad - make sure the retaining spring is fully seated into the piston bore. Install the outer brake pad - make sure the retaining spring is properly engaged with the caliper body and the wear indicator on the pad is positioned at the top of the caliper as shown. Place the caliper/brake pad assembly onto the steering knuckle (make sure the upper ends of the pads seat properly). Install the guide pin bolts and tighten them to the torque. While the pads are removed, inspect the caliper for brake fluid leaks and ruptures of the piston dust boot. Replace the caliper if necessary. Also inspect the brake disc carefully. If machining is necessary, follow the information in that Section to remove the disc. Inspect the brake hoses for damage and replace if necessary. Before installing the caliper guide pin bolt, clean and check them for corrosion and damage. If they're significantly corroded or damaged, replace them. Be sure to tighten the caliper guide pin bolts to the torque listed in the Specification.

Remove the caliper, inner pad, outer pad, and anti-rattle clips, then lubricate the guide pins before installing the new pads and caliper.
