How to change discs and pads on a Ford Transit

Model: Ford Transit MK 7 - Years 2006-2014
Part: Brake rotors

To remove the discs and pads from a Ford Transit, you will first need a 21mm socket. Unscrew the affected wheel, then lift the vehicle (do not rely too much on your jack). To remove the caliper, you will need a 12mm socket; remove the bolts and the caliper. Also, remove the caliper bracket, which is held by two bolts. Remove the disc retaining clip, using a hammer if necessary. With a 36mm socket, remove the central bolt of the disc. Push the male part inwards, and through the holes indicated in the video, you will reach 5 Torx bolts of size 45, which you will unscrew to extract the entire assembly from the hub. Another 5 bolts need to be unscrewed to remove the brake disc. The YouTuber confidently removes the disc from the assembly. Now, simply repeat on the other wheel and then reassemble everything in reverse order.
