Replacing the calipers are pretty simple. just take the wheel off and its right there. Two bolts and its off. Calipers are not something that usually has a problem.
Remove the wheels then the calipers. Replace the pads and press the pistons back into the calipers with a "C" clamp. Be sure to install any anti-squeek grease or shims included with the pads.
With the front end jacked up and on supports, remove the wheel, remove the calipers, then just pull off the rotor and replace. It is good to replace the disc pads also.
Remove the front wheel. Loosen and remove the two 15 or 17 mm bolts securing the calipers in place (access from the back side of the calipers). Lift the calipers out of the way and your rotor will be somewhat loose. Pull off the rotor.
You might not need to replace the calipers, but pads and rotors will need to be changed, if it was metal to metal. You would open up the bleeder screws on the calipers, and use a big C-clamp to force the pistons back into the caliper. Then remember to close the bleeders. The rotors come off after removing the calipers, and if not, then the wheel bearings will have to be taken apart, and checked, cleaned and repacked before reassembly.
remove wheel ,remove calipers, remove centre bearing nut then slide off disc. be carefull not to drop the bearing in dirt
Remove wheel, remove the two bolts in the calipers, pull up calipers, remove pads compress caliper piston with a c-clamp, be sure to have the brake fluid cap off the reservoir under the hood. - replace pads and reverse the order.
Wheel center caps can be replaced in about 20 minutes. While most people take wheel center caps into car repair shops, with the proper tools and minor know-how of bearing, they can be replaced at home.
Depends. Cars will have one caliper per wheel. High performance motorcycles may have two calipers on the front. Average motorcycles, one per wheel. Bicycles, one per wheel.
There are four. One at each wheel. Look behind each wheel and you will see the calipers on the front wheels, and you will see either calipers or a backing plate on the rear. On each caliper there will be a bleeder screw at the top, and if you have backing plates on the rear wheels, there will be a bleeder screw sticking out just above the center.
Possible bad caliper will cause overheated brakes and excessive wear will make the pad sensers squeel Replace both calipers with new loaded calipers and the rotors too, or you will get a pulsation
leaky wheel cylinders or calipers
