How do i change the brake pads on my 93 ford mustang?

i got the caliper locating pins off and the caliper assembaly is loose but it wont come off what am i doing wrong? its the lx modelHow do i change the brake pads on my 93 ford mustang?Well first things first...you need to pry the piston back into the caliper..do this with a big screwdriver or prybar..but it in the hole on top of the caliper,and pry towards u off the rotor.get it so there is about a 1/4-1/2 inch gap and then it should just lift off.once the pads are out of the caliper u need to push the piston back in all the way to make room for the new pads..i use either a huge pair of channel locks or a c-clamp.How do i change the brake pads on my 93 ford mustang?if all the pins are out the take a big screwdriver and pry between the rotor and caliper.
