Next use a large ratchet wrench with a 19mm socket to remove the two bolts that hold the caliper to the steering knuckle.

These bolts are in very tight, and had thread locker on them from the factory, so you may need a very long wrench or a breaker bar in order to get enough leverage to remove these two bolts.

Hold on to the caliper as you remove the second of the two bolts so it doesn't fall when you remove the bolt.
