How do I remove and install the front and rear brake calipers on Saturn LS and LS1?

To remove the front wheels, start by loosening the lug nuts but not removing them. Then, raise the front of the vehicle and secure it on jack stands, and remove the front wheels. Next, disconnect the brake line from the caliper and plug it in to prevent contaminants from entering the brake system and minimize brake fluid loss and remove the caliper guide pins and detach the caliper from its mounting bracket. To install the caliper, reverse the removal procedure. Tighten the caliper guide pins and the brake line banjo fitting bolt. Bleed the brake system and install the wheels and lug nuts. Lower the vehicle and tighten the lug nuts to the proper torque. For the rear wheels, follow a similar process as the front wheels.
