    Q:
    How to replace the front brake dust shields on Chevrolet Astro? Posted by Customer
    A:
    To get rid of the disc Brake Dust Shields on the front, first you need to elevate the vehicle or remove the tire and wheel. Next step is to remove the brake rotor and then remove the two Wheel Hub and bearing mounting bolts that secure the dust shields to the Spindle after which you will remove the dust shields themselves. For installation, start by installing the new dust shields and follow the fastener notice in the service precautions. Then install the two Wheel Hub and bearing mounting bolts tightening it to 90 nm (66ft. Lbs.). Then reinstall the brake rotor and the tire and wheel before bringing down the vehicle.
