  Q: How to replace the rear brake caliper bracket on Chevrolet Uplander?

  A: Secure the rear brake caliper using mechanics wire to prevent it from falling while leaving the flexible hose connected to avoid fluid leaks. Take off the brake caliper from its bracket keeping the hose connected and remove both Brake Pads and retainers from this bracket. Next you must remove both bolts that secure the Brake Caliper Bracket and then take out the entire rear Brake Caliper Bracket. Check and remove all rust or debris from the Brake Caliper Bracket using a wire brush. Inspect how the brake components mount together and verify the condition of the hardware. Clean both caliper bracket bolts and holes thoroughly with denatured alcohol or similar solvent before installation to get rid of any threadlocker residue. Apply threadlocker gm p/n 12345493 (Canadian P/N 10953488) to two-thirds of the bolt thread length on the old caliper bracket bolts and wait ten minutes. Fasten the Brake Caliper Bracket to its location using Brake Caliper Bracket bolts and tighten them to 130 n.m (96 lb ft). Match the brake caliper pin bolts with a thin layer of high-temperature silicone lube before putting Brake Pad retainers and brake pads onto the Brake Caliper Bracket for installation of the brake caliper.
