Loosen it.# remove bottom caliper slide bolt.  rotate caliper up, do additional testing to verify caliper is bad.# dghdfssdf# remove brake pads.  They will fall out easily since they are held in place by tension only. don't lose metal guide clips.# loosen top caliper slide bolt.  Slide caliper off, now caliper is free of disc completely.# Locate the "banjo" bolt (connects caliper to the brake hose). Loosen it. (this is how you disconnect brake line.)# pull out banjo bolt.  it is hollow.  the brake line banjo fitting will now fall away from the caliper.# there are two steel or copper washers, one on each side of the banjo fitting.  Don't lose them.# you will lose a lot of fluid out of the brake line banjo fitting.  if you can plug it temporary you will save fluid.
