In this video, learn how to change the brake disc and brake pads on a Jeep Wrangler. First, lift the vehicle on a column lift to a comfortable height, then remove the wheel (using a socket spanner or air drill) with the respective bolts.

Unscrew the locking bolt of the brake caliper and remove it from the caliper mount. Using a socket spanner, remove the caliper mount from the wheel hub.
