Once the vehicle is lifted and the front wheel is removed, disconnect the retaining spring applied to the caliper; lever between the disc and the caliper to slightly retract the piston and unscrew the caliper's mounting pins to remove it from its seat; then remove the caliper bracket and the disc mounting pin to take it off the hub; clean the new disc of protective oil residue, brush and lubricate the hub and caliper bracket; then install the new disc and caliper bracket, insert the new pads, retract the caliper piston using a brake caliper tool or a pair of pliers, and complete the installation by applying the spring.
