• Q: How to replace the rear brake caliper bracket on 2006 Buick Terraza?

  A: The brake caliper should be supported safely with heavy wires before beginning the job. Remove the brake caliper from its bracket without detaching the hose while you unload the brake pads from both components. Take off the Brake Caliper Bracket bolts then the entire rear Brake Caliper Bracket. Before moving on apply a wire brush to remove all rust and debris from the Brake Caliper Bracket. Check that both bolts and threaded areas on the caliper bracket are free of threadlocker and debris by cleaning them with denatured alcohol or comparable solution and allowing to dry. When using original caliper bracket bolts thread locker gm p/n 12345494 (CDN 10953488) needs application on 2/3 bolts' length threads while guarding against space and needs curing ten minutes. Put the Brake Caliper Bracket in place and add Brake Caliper Bracket bolts that you tighten to 130 nm (96 ft. Lbs.). Top the brake caliper pin bolts with silicone lube before sliding them into the Brake Caliper Bracket. Then fit the Brake Pad retainers and brake pads. After that put in the brake caliper.
