What happens here

Identify the two bolts holding the brake caliper in place; typically, one is at the top and one at the bottom. Use an impact wrench or a suitable socket wrench to loosen and remove these bolts. Once both bolts are out, gently wiggle the caliper to free it from the rotor. Do not let the caliper hang by the brake line; instead, support it with a wire or bungee cord hooked to the suspension to prevent damage to the brake hose.

Goal: Locate and remove the two bolts securing the brake caliper, then carefully detach the caliper from the rotor.
