Chrysler BHKH5665 Front Brake Disc Package

Before replacing brake pads, it's advised to remove approximately two-thirds of the fluid from the master cylinder reservoir using a syringe or equivalent. This prevents potential overflow of brake fluid during the brake pad replacement process.

Identify the caliper type by counting the caliper mounting pins and determining if it's a single-pin or double-pin family caliper. Also, note if it's attached directly to the steering knuckle or via an adapter. To remove the caliper, remove the guide pin(s), swing up the lower end of the caliper, and detach it from the caliper mounting bracket. Support the caliper out of the way using a wire hanger.

To replace the rear brake pads, follow these steps, wash the rear caliper with brake system cleaner. Use a C-clamp to compress the piston into its bore, being mindful of the master cylinder reservoir. Remove the caliper mounting bolts. Swing the caliper upwards (removing anti-rattle springs on later models), and wire it to the rear coil spring to prevent stress on the brake hose. Pry the outer pad from the rear caliper with a screwdriver, remove the anti-rattle clips and bushings, and apply anti-seize to the cleaned bushings. After cleaning, install the anti-rattle clips, align the protrusions on the outer brake pad with the caliper frame slots, and push the pad into the caliper until it seats properly. Engage the upper part of the brake pads with the upper anti-rattle clip. Swing the caliper rear down, and install and tighten the rear caliper bolts to torque specifications.
