Raise the car on suitable car stands and remove the wheels; start with the front brakes by removing the brake caliper, its support and then the disc; clean the disc seat on the hub with a metal brush, apply grease and install the new disc after cleaning it from the protective oil; if you have a comparator you can also measure the eventual disc eccentricity; complete the installation of the pads and caliper by lubricating the sliding parts. For rear brakes, disassemble the drum, replace the shoes paying attention to the springs and clean the inside of the drum with sandpaper before installing it. Pump the brake pedal until it opposes the right resistance and still pay attention to the first braking.
