How to replace the front brake calipers on 2005 Buick Park Avenue?

Before working on the front brake caliper check the fluid level in the brake master cylinder reservoir. When the fluid is higher than halfway between its marks drain it until it reaches the same level. Lift the car for access and take off the tire and wheel part. Our first step is installing two wheel lug nuts by hand while keeping the rotor in place on the hub. Place a large c-clamp on top of the brake caliper and gradually tighten to push the caliper piston into the brake rotor until it can pass through, then remove the c-clamp. Disconnect the brake caliper bolt's brake hose while discarding the two copper brake hose gaskets but sealing off the ends with pliers. Take off the caliper bolts at their pins and lift the caliper away from the bracket. Inspect the pin bolt boots for spots where leather has damaged or torn through. Before placing the brake caliper pin bolts back use a shop towel to clean them and put on a thin coat of niglube(R) grease without adding lubricant to brake pad parts. Press the brake caliper above brake pads into the Brake Caliper Bracket and fasten it using caliper pin bolts until they reach a torque of 85 nm (63 ft. Lbs.). Attach the brake hose bolt to the brake caliper by assembling it with new copper brake hose gaskets then tighten it to 45 nm (33 ft. Lbs.). Depress the brake pedal to a middle position during 2/3rd travel then let it go slowly and repeat until pedal pressure becomes steady. You should put the tire and wheel set onto the vehicle then lower it to the ground when you have removed both wheel lug nuts.
