You don't need to remove the calipers.


1. Remove the safety bracket and extract the retainer pin inwards.
2. Pull out the warning contact wire on the brake calliper and remove the warning contacts from the brake pad plates.
3. Remove brake pads using the brake pad puller. Always observe the following important
points:

Press the brake pads back as far as possible using the piston resetting fixture.

Pull out brake pads together with the vibration dampers. If this is not possible (depending on the amount of wear on the brake pads), use a spatula to detach the vibration dampers from the brake pad backing plate.



But if you did already, torque specs below:

You do need to remove the calipers to replace the rear pads ... different than the 996 where you could just remove the pin in the rears. Should be torqued to around 63lb.
