Removing the Brake Rotor

• 1). Unscrew the bolts that secure the brake caliper to the caliper bracket, using a socket.
  
  
• 2). Place a c-clamp over the brake caliper, with the bottom of the clamp against the inboard side of the caliper and the top of the clamp on the outside of the outer brake pad. Close the c-clamp to drive the piston into the caliper.
  
  
• 3). Lift the caliper off the brake rotor, using you hand. Attach it to the vehicle's frame using a plastic wire tie. Do not allow the caliper to hang from the rubber hydraulic hose. It will damage the hose.
