Brakes
Have a 2002 Ford Explorer Sport, the front right Caliber is locked up. How do I change it and bleed the brakes? How difficult will it be?

Thanks,

Roy

unbolt it from the mounting bracket and then from the brake line. then install the new caliper and upen the bleed screw and pump brakes until fluid comes out then tighten screw. you may have to do this numerous times

Will it mess up my ABS system? That is what I am afraid of. Done brakes on lots of cars but none with a ABS system.


Thanks,
Roy
