Changeing brakes

[h31met]

Hi there i am going to try and change the brakes on the front and rear of my pajero. Has any one done it and if so what is the best way to go around it many thanks.

I normally jack up the front with a trolley jack and prop it with axle stands, change both sides on the front then repeat for rear. Its very straight forward to do and you dont need to many tools. Remember to remove the brake fluid cap before you start the brakes then its ony a couple of bolts holding on each caliper and you'll need either a caliper clamp or G-clamp to push the pistons back for the new pads to fit in. If your taking off the discs and they are badly rusted to the hub and wont come off, you can grinded a groove in the disc and belt with hammer. This will split the disc so it frees from the hub, then remember to put copper grease on the hub, rear of pads and the rear of the wheel when putting back together.

Sure there's a post on here explaining how you do it in detail or buy a manual.

hope this helps

Hi, dont forget if you have A.B.S. dont just force the pistons back, clamp the hose and let the fluid out through the bleed nipple.
