  Q: How to replace the rear brake calipers on GMC Terrain?

  A: The first step for replacing the rear brake caliper involves lifting and sustaining the vehicle. The brake caliper repair involves removing first the tire-wheeled assembly followed by removing the brake hose fitting bolt along with the brake hose fitting from the brake caliper but the brake hose fitting gaskets must be discarded and replaced new ones. Insert a cap to protect the brake hose fitting from both fluid loss and contaminants. Use hand tools to remove or install guide pin bolts while maintaining brake caliper guide pin alignment with the brake caliper but prevent an open end wrench opening to touch the brake caliper to avoid brake pulsation. Hold the brake caliper guide pin still while removing the brake caliper guide pin bolts before taking away the brake caliper. To install the replacement brake caliper guide the pin while keeping it static and torque the brake caliper guide pin bolts to 27 nm (20 lb ft). The procedure includes fitting new gaskets on the brake hose fitting and bolting the brake hose fitting bolt to the brake hose fitting using two new gaskets before attaching the brake hose assembly to the brake caliper with a torque of 52 nm (38 lb ft). Finish the process by bleaching hydraulic brake fluid before installing the tire with wheel assembly.

You should start by loosening the radiator inlet hose clamp at the engine with J 38185 before pulling off the radiator inlet hose from the engine then moving on to remove the hose from the vehicle. Clean coolant must be used to lubricate all inside diameters of the new hose before applying it to the vehicle. J 38185 - Hose Clamp Pliers should be used to apply tension on the radiator inlet hose clamp which connects to the engine. By using J 38185 - Hose Clamp Pliers fix the new radiator inlet hose to the engine before locking tension on the clamp using the tool.

Take out the retainers and write down how exactly the battery negative cable was routed inside where the engine compartment is, and remove the battery negative cable . To install first inspect the battery negative cable engine ground nut and washer to the engine block stud then fasting to 30 nm (22 lb ft). Now, bolt the battery negative cable frame ground nut to the frame rail with a manual clamping, up to 25 nm (18 lb ft). To connect the body harness connector, to the battery current sensor, and then to the battery negative cable. Lastly, reset the radio channel presets.
