I have a '93 90S and I think it's time to replace the pads....110,000 miles. Is anyone willing to give me detailed instructions on how to do this? I have changed pads on other cars, but didn't need to remove the calipers to do it. It's my understanding that I do have to remove them to change these. Anyone willing give me the steps?
Thanks
Harry

Simply remove the lower(bottom) carrier bolt(3) and swing caliper up, and R&R pads.
You will also need a "C" clamp or other suitable tool to press in the caliper pistons to install the new pads.

The desert southwest has virtually no corrosion problems!
Maybe find a salvage yard out west, and get a few price quotes on the rear calipers! ;o)
