Replacement disc brake pads on Ford Transit

Model: Ford Transit MK 6 - Years 2000-2006
Part: Brake pads

Remove the clips located above the fixing bolts of the affected wheel. Loosen the same bolts, then lift the vehicle with a jack and unscrew them completely, thus being able to extract the wheel. Unscrew the caliper fixing bolt while holding the front guide with a wrench. Use a flat screwdriver to extract the disc brake pads. If you are uncertain about replacing the pads, measure the working thickness of the pads: it must be greater than 1.5 mm to be able to brake again. Clean the braking area with a special spray and insert the new pads, then proceed backwards for complete reassembly.
