• Q: How to service and repair the rear brake pads on all on 2002 Ford Excursion?

  A: As the first step in servicing rear brake pads for any vehicle start by removing the brake master cylinder filler cap and measure brake fluid in the reservoir to remove an amount equal to half of its capacity. The service procedure first involves brake pads inspection after wheel separation for wear and contamination signs. New brake pads must be installed upon detecting any pad condition outside specified dimensions. Calfier pin bolts and the stone shield and nuts must be uninstalled before removing forward-of-axle brake calipers. Support the brake hose properly before caliper removal since letting the caliper hang from the brake hose is never permitted. Start by removing the rear disc brake caliper before obtaining the brake pads and rail clips along with measuring the rear brake disc's thickness before replacing it with a new one when spec limits are not met. The inspection of the disc brake caliper must be performed to check for leaks and disassembly becomes necessary when leaks are detected. The installation process starts by reversing previous steps while making sure to protect both piston and boots from damage during caliper piston bore insertion by using caliper pistons to reach bottom locations of calibration bores.
