Chevy Truck: Removing Brake Calipers

Right now what I'm going to be doing is removing the outer tie rod end for the steering. After I do that, I'm going to actually remove the brake caliber. Before you get to those steps, you need to unclip and remove the ABS line from the control arm and unclip the actual brake line from the upper mount up here, OK? To remove the outer tie rod end, take the nut off and you're going to hit on the actual part of the spindle and the tie rod end will drop out just like so. Alright now I'm going to actually turn the spindle away so I can get access to the caliber bolt. Then slide the caliber off of the rotor. Now that you have the brake caliber unbolted, you cannot leave the brake caliber hanging from the brake hose. So what I want you to do is get a piece of wire or cable and tie it up so it's that suspended on the cable and not the brake hose. And now I'm going to remove the sway bar ending from the lower controller. Once it's removed, swing it up so it's out of your way.
