Brake removel i am in an advanced auto mechanics class and i need information on how to take the brakes off of my 1988 toyota pickup. i have looked every where for a diagram and have had no luck. how do i get the brake off to get to the bearings?

You buy a proper repair manual, do you agree? You buy a proper repair manual, do you agree?

You don't remove the "brake" from the bearing. You may remove the hub, the tire, the brake caliper mount, but the brake pades come off from the caliper.



public libraries normally have a great selection of free repair manuals.



p.s. when is comes to removing things, here are the steps to follow



1. look for bolts or screws to remove and do so

2. try to pull piece off/out

3. try harder

4. love taps

5. if 1-4 fail, look in manual and see if you need puller

6. if you need puller, go to autozone or wherever and rent puller, making one from scratch is really hard



if none of these works, ask your teacher.
