How do you change front brake pads on toyota lucida?

Answer 1

14mm spanner or socket+wrench, large G clamp, large screwdriver/lever. turn steering for easier access to side you are working on. Start jacking, remove wheel nuts, finish jacking, remove wheel. Remove 14mm bolt near bottom of caliper. Can now swivel up caliper, (may need to apply pressure to push back piston). Take off two thin wire springs, pull out the pads, note of postion of the anti-squeal plates. Note the spring clips at top and bottom of pad mounting points, (these have to be pulled over when putting the pads back in). Make sure the caliper can move smoothly on its upper slide bar. Re-assembly is the reverse, reuse parts you're not replacing. Use the G clamp to squash in the piston before dropping the caliper into place.
