• Q: How to replace the brake pads (Delco 3400) on 2002 Chevrolet Express 2500?

  A: To replace brake pads model delco 3400 start by raising the vehicle and securing it properly. Detach the caliper unit from the brake rotor without unconnecting the brake line to service brake pads. Use a flatbladed tool to disengage the front brake caliper housing bottom and take off the outboard Brake Pad. Then remove the inboard Brake Pad like the other one. Keep shortening the corrosion points and swap any damaged caliper hardware while also handling damaged bushing and seal parts on the caliper bolts. Before installation apply delco silicone lube gm p/n 18010909 or equivalent to all front brake caliper parts including bushings and bolts. Place the front inboard Brake Pad onto the front Brake Caliper Piston by pushing the retainer ring in place so it rests without warping against the surface. Install the front outboard Brake Pad during forward wheel rotation. Position it with the wear indicator at the leading edge as you make sure the pad rests against the caliper surface. After attaching the front brake caliper to the rotor you need to test the braking performance. Push down on the brake pedal until it becomes firm then examine the Brake Master Cylinder fluid supply. Complete the operation by taking off safety stands and lowering the vehicle.
