I have never done it before, but I need to replace the front left caliper on 1994 toyota camry Le and I don't know the right way to do it. I know I am going to loose some brake fluid by replacing a caliper. Please tell me how to do this the right way and what tools I am going to need.

Hi db2010, Here are the procedures. FRONT BRAKE CALIPER Removal Raise and support vehicle. Remove wheel and tire assembly. Disconnect brakeline from caliper. Plug brakeline to prevent fluid spillage. Remove caliper mounting bolts or slide pins if necessary. Remove caliper from torque plate. NOTE: Pushing piston into caliper bore forces fluid back into master cylinder reservoir. Remove reservoir cap when compressing piston. Installation Push piston into caliper bore, if necessary. DO NOT let piston dust boot wedge against edge of pads. To install, reverse removal procedure. Tighten bolts to specification. Check reservoir fluid level. Bleed system.
