How to replace the front brake calipers (J55) on 2006 Cadillac DTS?

To replace front brake caliper (J55), one must first check the level of fluid in the brake master cylinder reservoir; if it is half way between the maximum-full to minimum allowable one does not need to remove any fluid, or if it is higher reduce to the half way then. Lift up and support the vehicle, make sure to mark the relationship between the wheel and the axle flange then pull off the tire and wheel assembly. Position a large c-clamp across the brake caliper body, and pull it tight enough to force the caliper pistons to slide over the brake rotor, then remove the c-clamp. Puncture the brake tube to caliper bolt and throw away the two copper brake hose gaskets while plugging the holes to avoid the fluid spurts and contamination. Take out the brake caliper pin bolts and also remove the brake caliper. To install- clean the brake caliper pin bolts & retainers w/ denatured alcohol and dry with non-lubricated filtered air. Position the brake caliper on top of the Brake Pad and into the bracket, applying a thin covering of high-temperature silicone brake lubricant to the pin bolts but not on the Brake Pad hardware. Mount the brake caliper pin bolts and tighten them to 113 nm (83 ft. Lbs.). Prepare from new copper gaskets for brake hose when fitting the brake hose bolt and fix the same to brake caliper by tightening it with 45 nm (33 ft. Lbs.). To bleed the brake system, bleed the brake system, with the engine off, try to apply the Brake Pedal to about 2/3 of the distance and slowly release the pedal and repeat the process until you get a firm pedal in order to seat the caliper pistons and brake pads properly. Lastly, replace the tire and wheel assembly and lower the vehicle.
