How to remove brake pads?

To remove the brake pads, start by loosening the front wheel lug nuts and raising the front of the vehicle on jack stands. Remove the wheels and discard about two-thirds of the fluid from the master cylinder reservoir. Position a drain pan under the brake assembly and clean the caliper and surrounding area. Use a C-clamp to push the piston back into the bore, making sure the fluid in the master cylinder doesn't overflow. Inspect the caliper for leaks and damage, and also inspect the brake disc. Clean and check the caliper mounting bolts before tightening them to the proper torque specifications. To install the new brake pads, start by installing them on the opposite wheel, then install the wheels and lower the vehicle. Tighten the lug nuts to the specified torque. Add brake fluid to the reservoir and pump the brakes to seat the pads against the disc. Check the fluid level again and test the brakes before driving in traffic, avoiding heavy brake applications until the pads have been seated.

Chevrolet S10 Brake Pad

Brake Pad are among the vital parts whose significance can be felt in Chevrolet S10 cars because they are aimed at stopping the car through building friction with the rotating brake rotors. These pads consist of metals and synthetic materials to enable the pads to work well at high temperatures, which range to about 400 degrees Fahrenheit in normal functioning. The Brake Pads have steel backing plates to which friction material is applied which in turn transfers to the rotor to produce the required amount of friction for braking. Different categories of Brake Pads are Non Asoptimalos, Semi Metallic, Full Metallic and Ceramic brake pads and each of these brake pads has its characteristics such as frictional co-efficient, wear and tear rate and level of noise produced. Brake Pads must be replaced after every 50,000 miles and proper maintenance of the brake system always help in efficient the functioning of brakes. The Brake hardware items such as clips springs and shims are very crucial for the efficiency of Brake Pad, quiet operation and even wear of the Brake Pads, in this way the Brake Pad is optimized and has a longer life span.

Each OEM Chevrolet S10 Brake Pad we offer is competitively priced and comes with the assurance of the manufacturer's warranty for the part. Furthermore, we guarantee the speedy delivery of your orders right to your doorstep. Our hassle-free return policy is also in place for your peace of mind.
