Best Answer

Take the wheel off.

You'll need a 10 mm socket for the brake pad screw. Loosen the screw and the brake caliper will flip up. Remove brake pads and pay attention to how they are installed.

Use a pair of regular pliers or vice grips to 'screw' the caliper cylinder back in before placing the new brake pads on.

Reverse install the pads, ie... position the same way they were before you removed them.

Flip cylinder back down and put screw back in and tighten.

Put the wheel back on.
