I did a search on the whole forum nothing about installing pads. As I have lost my haynes manual i am in need of a link or a guide. I got caught on the top caliper bolt. There is a cover. I dont want to pry it off with out getting a second opinion from a person or from a install guide. Would anyone be able to help me?

 

Is this for the rear brakes? I don't remember a cover for the front.

 

Remove the cover, any way you can, you don't need it.

The other hard part is pulling the stupid screws that hold the rotor on the hub. Drill them out and leave them out.

Start with a small drill and work your way up to a 3/8 drill. You don't have to get all the head off, you can pull the rotor over the last small piece if you were not centered good.

Put anti-seize on the bolts when you put them back in. I also put a little anti-seize on the lug nuts threads.

 

what cover? got a pic?

 

I'm thinking its the rock shield on the rear brakes.

 

so you're telling him to take it off cause he doesn't need it but you dont even know what it is?

 

Extra parts hmmm thats not good .

or you can just do it correctly and use an impact driver
