I am needing to replace the rear rotors, pads and right rear caliper. I'm having trouble figureing out what gaskets, retainer rings, bearings and everything else I might need. What size snap rings do I need? What needs to be replaced besides the obvious. Thanks for your help.


Best,

Patrick

I've pointed out a few things that you are already going to replace. You might get a brake hardware kit to replace the bushings,etc. as you are replacing the caliper on one side normally you do both not one. also you should suck out all brake fluid from reservoir and put in new prior to bleeding brakes and I highly recommend using a power bleeder because if when you are done an dyou have no brake pedal then a mechanic will need to use his scanner to open abs unit to bleed with a scanner. see pics
