Best Answer

In very general terms, you remove the caliper from knuckle, remove the old pads, scrub the slider surface and bolts clean and then re-assemble it with new pads.

When asking important technical questions like this , please always state the vehicle make, model and year. - You will get a much better and more specific answer. - I, for one, am NOT prepared to waffle about such a vital concern on your car.
