How to service and repair the front brake caliper on a 4.0L SOHC on 2006 Ford Mustang?

Start the front brake caliper service and repair procedure on a 4.0L SOHC vehicle by first putting it in neutral on a hoist. The use of DOT 3 motor vehicle brake fluid approved by the DOT will safeguard brake components from irreversible damage. No matter how you handle brake fluid maintain high caution because exposure to eyes or painted or plastic surfaces creates harm; flush eyes with water during 15 minutes of exposure then wash the fluid spills right away. Begin by removing the brake caliper flow bolt along with discarding its two copper washers. Silence the caliper sight hole because its use for piston retraction causes damage. Additionally refrain from suspending the caliper using the brake hose. An appropriate support method is required. You should first remove and discard both brake caliper bolts before pulling the brake caliper from its position and examine it for any leaky boots and damage that needs replacement. An experienced professional must position the new brake caliper before using two new bolts to secure it while torquing the bolts to 34 Nm (25 ft. lbs.). The brake caliper requires two new copper washers before attaching the brake flexible hose for installation of the brake caliper flow bolt which needs to be tightened to 70 Nm (52 ft. lbs.). The brake system needs bleeding before conducting a test of standard brake functions.
