• Q: How to Service and Repair the Brake Disc on 2002 Ford E-150 Econoline?

  A: Begin service and repairs on the E-150 disc brake by removing the brake pads first. You must detach the brake disc and hub after removing the hub grease cap along with the cotter pin, nut retainer, spindle nut and front wheel outer bearing retainer washer and outer front wheel bearing then remove the brake disc and hub. The manufacturer advises following lathe manufacturer guidelines for on-vehicle machining when resurfacing becomes necessary. The repair process starts by uninstalling both the wheel hub grease seal together with the inner front wheel bearing. Install the front wheel bearings and brake disc along with their hub by cleaning the components with Metal Brake Parts Cleaner F3AZ-19579-SA or its equivalent product. Begin by applying Premium Long-Life Grease XG-1-C or -K or an equivalent product that fulfills Ford specification ESA-M1C75-B. Install new wheel hub grease seals in succession along with the inner front wheel bearing. Another new wheel hub grease seal must then be installed. The brake disc and hub should be positioned before installing the outer front wheel bearing and the front wheel outer bearing retainer washer. When rotating the brake disc and hub with the spindle nut secure you will need to loosen the spindle nut once by two turns. Tighten the spindle nut once more during rotation and repeat with twist and lock procedures then perform another final closure while turning the brake disc. Clothe the rebuild at last by placing the pin reciever, cotter pin, and hub grease cap and then return the brake pads to position.
