How to replace the front disc brake dust shields on Cadillac STS?

Begin the front disc brake dust shield replacement process by lifting the vehicle and supporting it before taking out the tire along with wheel. Proceed by disconnecting the brake caliper along with its mounting bracket from the knuckle suspension while keeping the hydraulic brake flexible hose tension-free using heavy mechanic's wire. Next step is to extract both the front wheel bearing assembly and the dust shield from the Steering Knuckle. Use the Wheel Hub resurfacing kit (J42450-A) to remove all rust and corrosion from the Wheel Hub and sanitize both the wheel bearing flange and brake rotor mating surfaces to decrease potential lateral runout and brake pulsation. First clean Steering Knuckle mating surfaces as well as dust shield before putting the dust shield onto the Steering Knuckle and finally installing the wheel bearing assembly. Lower the vehicle before reinstalling the tire and wheel assembly and then rejoin the brake caliper and bracket assembly to the suspension knuckle.
