How do you change brake pads on a 2007 Jeep Liberty?

Answer 1

Its a fairly simple process. Remove the wheel, unbolt the two bolts on the back of the caliper. Go to the engine bay and open the brake fluid resivoir to allow the brake fluid to slow back up into the resivior. Now that the two bolt are loose, you can pull the caliper off of the rotor. Remove the two pads. Use a c-clamp or brake tool to press the brake piston back into the caliper SLOWLY. Place the new pads into the caliper, and slide it back onto the rotor. Bolt the caliper back on. Repeat the same on the opposite side. Once everything is back together, syphon any "near overflow" brake fluid out of the resivoir. Place the cap back on and slowly press the brake pedal repeatedly until the pedal becomes stiff as normal again. Done.
