1. Remove the cap from brake fluid reservoir 2. Loosen the lug nuts the raise car and support it securely on jack stands 3. Remove the lug nuts and wheel 4. Maybe be necessary to remove the center console and detach the parking brake cable from lever for more slack to detach it from caliper. 5. Remove the clip and disconnect the parking brake cable from bracket. Remove the two bolts and lift caliper assembly off 6. Remove the brake pads and rotate caliper piston back into caliper

04 alero front brakes get hot why?

This could be for a few reasons, but if they are getting hot without you applying them, I would suggest that they are sticking and causing the pads to rub on the discs, or if they are drum brakes, the shoes on the drums. If they are only getting hot as a result of using the brakes, I would suggest checking that the brakes are balanced properly, and that the front brakes are not doing all of the work/ or that the back brakes are working at all.

04 Hyundai Elantra all four brakes are locked up?

I have a Hyundai Elantra GLS 2003 with "anti-lock brakes." I rear ended a car on the highway last night and on recolecting as carefully as I can, I braked, and I believe I braked in time. The car didn't stop. I don't believe it even slowed down appreciably. A friend of mine said that the "anti-lock" mechanism RELEASES the brake when it senses a skid. But what logic there is in not braking immediately after the release (in an automatic pumping motion) escapes me entirely and I braked immediately and I braked hard. I am considering taking Hyundai to court. I'd be grateful for any information or incidents others have experienced.


How does the rear parking brake work on 04 Hyundai Elantra gt with disc brakes?

If it's the same set-up as a 2005 Hyundai Elantra GT with disk brakes all around (my car), then it's pretty simple. When you pull the e-brake lever, it tightens 2 cables which pull individually on a lever that is attached to each caliper. This lever turns the piston inside the caliper which tightens the pads on the rotor. Thus, your vehicle stays in place (theoretically). If your cable is too loose or your pads are too worn, then the parking brake will not engage. Or in my case, if both brake cables rusted to hell and then snapped, it won't work either.

Will a 4.6L engine from a 99-04 mustang fit in a 99-04 mustang 3.8L v6?

Yes but not for cheap, you would have to change out the complete wiring harness and all the computers and gauges also the motor mounts the front suspension and all the brakes, then you would have to find the motor and have it put in your better off just buying a GT or Cobra
