How to remove and replace the brake caliper on 2009 Ford Explorer?

The first step in brake caliper replacement requires the use of clean brake fluid from the manufacturer specifications while discarding all previously drained fluid to protect components from damage. You should read the warning instructions on the label carefully before consulting medical professionals in emergency situations. Any leakage of brake fluid should lead to immediate water-based cleansing of painted or plastic surfaces. Start by removing the wheel and tire followed by disconnecting the brake flexible hose flow bolt and placing aside the brake hose and discarding the two copper washers and capping fluid ports. The process of retracting pistons through the brake caliper sight hole needs to be done carefully to prevent any damage from occurring. The brake caliper guide pin bolts must be removed before uninstalling the brake caliper and new brake caliper must be installed if boot leakage or damage exists. During installation position the brake caliper and fasten it with the two guide pin bolts which need to be tightened up to 72 Nm (53 lb-ft). Two new copper washers will serve to position the brake hose before attaching the brake hose flow bolt which should be tightened at 35 Nm (26 lb-ft). Bleed the brake caliper before reattaching the wheel together with the tire.
