"Discs" is my first guess as the poster did mention disc!
2nd clue was that he had to remove the caliper... *usually*, calipers don`t
require removing to put on the pads and the sensor..

The chain tensioner ratcheted out when you took the chain loose. You have to remove the tensioner
then put the chain and cam gear on. Take the tensioner and put the large hex section in a vise.
Unscrew the center of the hex....it is spring loaded. Remove the center piece and spring. Push the
plunger all the way out the bottom [if the spring has not already done this]. Screw the hex section
into the timing cover. Push the plunger in. Put the spring in. Screw the center plug back in. The
spring will ratchet the plunger out to the chain. Oil pressure will set it correctly.

Fill the gap between disc and caliper with something suitably thick to
support the disc from one side and use something handy as a lever on the
other side to push the piston back. Then do the same on the first side.
That`s easy :-)

to remove the rotor, first remove caliper,remove center dust cover,loosen allen
screw on clamp type hub nut, loosen nut, outer bearing will fall out when you
pull the rotor off,so take it off so it doesn`t fall on the ground, put it in a
baggy or somewhere clean, the rotor will have to come off of the hub,its held
on with five large allen screws, get the one that fits your 1/2" drive
rachet,you will probably need a breaker bar,the book calls for a vise but i
bolted mine back onto the wheel and tire and had someone stand on the tire
while i loosened the bolts,worked very well,you should inspect bearings and
repack and check seals, put hub, rotor and caliper back on and adjust
bearings,thats the part i hate, never know if im getting it just right,i
tighten the nut down to seat the bearings, then back it off till the wheel
spins fairly easy,then then grab the tire at 12 and 6 oclock and check for
play,you don`t want it too tight or too loose. mark

Title: RapidinhaDate: Wed, 23 Sep 2009 11:59:26 +0000Author: Fórmula TotalUma notícia que merce destaque porque tem sentido. As especulações sobre a compra da Brawn pela Mercedes começam a fazer mais sentido quando é escrita de outra forma.
Um grupo árabe de nome Aabar Investments, que detem uma importante parcela das ações da Mercedes, estaria mesmo comprando 50% da Brawn. Quando Ross Brawn se limitou a dizer que, “só posso confirmar que asseguramos o futuro da equipe, pois qualquer anúncio só será feito depois do final da temporada”, ele pode mesmo ter fechado um acordo com o tal grupo, que garantiria financeiramente a equipe, mesmo sem patrocinadores, durante os próximos três anos.
Há quem acredite que a Mercedes pretender desfazer-se as ações que detém na McLaren – e que representam 40% do capital da equipe – no final de 2012, e assumiria por completo o controlo da Brawn. Por isso que a Mercedes prefere colocar Nico Rosberg na Brawn, pois quer ter um alemão ao seu serviço sem estar na sombra de Lewis Hamilton. Isso sim é que é especulação, porque a McLaren manda e desmanda na parada e a montadora nunca fez questão de ter maior comando das ações. Porque iria querer desfazer uma parceria de anos sucesso só para ter um piloto alemão?
Para quem não sabe, a McLaren tem poder de veto sobre qualquer tipo de negociação que a Mercedes faça na F1. Por isso que a Mercedes não vai fornecer os seus ótimos motores para a Red Bull.
