Hi, I'm Mike from 1A Auto. I hope this how-to video helps you out, and next time you need parts for your vehicle, think of 1AAuto.com. Thanks.
In this video, we're going to show you how to replace the rear brakes on this 2003 Chevy Monte Carlo. We show you on the passenger side, but the driver side is the same procedure. The items you'll need are a new brake pad and rotor kit from 1AAuto.com, 13 and 19 millimeter socket and ratchet, 14 millimeter wrench, flat-blade screwdriver, hammer, large C-clamp, wire brush, brake grease, jack and jack stands, and a torque wrench.
Loosen up the lug nut caps, pull your hubcap off, and then, remove the lug nuts. You want to loosen these while the vehicle is on the ground, and then raise the vehicle and remove them the rest of the way, if you don't have air-powered tools. Now, just pull the wheel off.
Next, remove these two 14 millimeter bolts. Put your 14 millimeter wrench on the bolt and then use another wrench for some extra leverage to help break them free. Then, remove them the rest of the way. Once you pull back the caliper, just pry out the brake pads with the flat blade screwdriver and then, pry off these brake pad slides. Now, remove these two 13 millimeter bolts. Now, pull the caliper off and set it aside, and slide your rotor off.
On the left, are the old brake pads and rotor; on the right, are the new ones from 1A Auto. You can see they're identical and they'll fit exactly the same. You may find that you need to adjust your e-brake, the shoe, in a little bit. Just turn the little star adjuster to make them smaller. You can see here we adjust it so that the rotor goes on and will spin freely once it's on. Take your caliper and push it back into place, and replace those two 13 millimeter bolts.
Pull back your caliper and then, using an old brake pad, just push in that piston. Just twist the large C-clamp and then push the brake pad against the piston and push the piston in. Clean off your brake pad slides using a wire brush and then, push them back into place. Wipe down your rotor with some brake cleaner and then apply brake grease to the tabs on either end of your brake pads. Slide the brake pads into place and then push your caliper back up into place now for the brake pads. Then replace those two 14 millimeter bolts and tighten them up.
Replace your wheel and then replace the lug nuts and tighten them preliminarily. Then, lower the vehicle and tighten them the rest of the way. Torque each of these to 100 foot-pounds in a crossing pattern. Replace your hubcap and tighten up these lug nut caps.
Whenever you do any work on the brakes, you want to just pump the brake pedal until it firms out and then do a stopping test from 5 miles per hour, and then 10 miles per hour.

Next, remove the top caliper bolt and loosen the bottom one. I use a 14mm wrench and hook it on with another wrench to get some extra leverage. Again, remove the top one and loosen the bottom one. Once you remove the top one, then you can pull the caliper back. Once you pull back the caliper, just pry out the brake pads with a flat blade screw driver. Then pry out these brake pad slides.
On the top are the new pads from 1A Auto; on the bottom are the old ones. You can see that the new ones from 1A Auto are exactly the same.

Slide the brake pads into place and then push your caliper back up into place over the brake pads. Then replace those two 14mm bolts and tighten them up.
Replace your wheel, replace the lug nuts, and then tighten them preliminary. Lower the vehicle and tighten them the rest of the way. Then torque each of these to 100 foot-pounds in a crossing pattern. Replace your hub cap and tighten up these lug nut caps. Whenever you do any work on the brakes, you want to just pump the brake pedal until it firms out and try a stopping test from five miles per hour, then ten miles.
