How to change pads rear 2001 grand marquis?

Answer 1

First, make sure to pump the break pedal about 25 times to relieve any pressure in the booster reserve if you have anti-lock breaks. If you have 4 wheel disc breaks, the method for changing the pads is really no different than changing the front pads. Aside from the obvious of loosening the lugs, raising the vehicle and removing the tires, take a C-clamp and compress the caliper by putting the fixed end of the clamp on the rear of the break caliper and the adjustable end on the outside shoe. Compress the piston so the shoes are loose. Loosen the mounting bolts at the back of the caliper. Remove the caliper and remove the pads. Reverse the process to reinstall. Hope this helps.
