To install rear calipers on a 1989 Lincoln Mark VII, start by safely lifting the vehicle and removing the rear wheels. Next, detach the old calipers by removing the bolts holding them in place, and disconnect the brake line carefully to avoid fluid spillage. Attach the new calipers by securing them with the bolts and reconnecting the brake lines, ensuring a tight fit. Finally, bleed the brake system to remove any air, then reassemble the wheels and lower the vehicle.
2 Bolts on the back. Remove them and remove the Brake line, and Install new doing the inverse
It is on the left rear of the engine.
the piston on the rear calipers will turn in a clockwise motion and that is how they retract.
The calipers are threaded and screw out.
probably about 400-$500 for everything.
No need to rotate the front caliper pistons as you compress the front calipers. That process is only for the rear calipers because of the parking brake mechanism.
Remove the U-bolts and the shocks. Remove the wheels, shocks, calipers, driveshaft,Êspring bolts andÊbrake lines. Install the rear axle and install everything back. Bolt in the torque arm and the lower control arms. You may want to get the help of somebody in doing this.
Yes!
Rear Calipers sticking. Replace the calipers and drain and flush the entire brake system. In addition, replacing the rotors when you install new pads will make them last longer. Worn rotors will not mate properly to the new pads, causing uneven wear.
You will need the tool to retract the calipers. The piston in the rear calipers have to be turned clockwise as you compress them back in.
they suck have fun
Push down and back toward rear of car and lift out Hope this helps
