Is there how to, on replacing your front and rear brake pads? and how to remove and reinstall the front and rear rotors, or should it be left to the pros?

 

Just did my fronts. I've heard you need a special tool for the rear calipers.

^^ nice write up.

calitsx, let us know if you need more help.

 

Did you decide to go with those lines or pads?

 

moda: not yet - i'm waiting for you to complete 300 miles review

seriously, i'm still debating, but i will call him for pricing

 

Cool. I've got to clean my car and check out if there is much dust too. I did have to use the brakes at 40% yesterday... felt like I was using them at 60% of the OEM set. The lines make a huge difference!!! The pads are now seated in and I have about 100 miles on them so far (I do over 300 miles a week).

 

Is there a really detailed write up with pics?

 

Look up at my link above. I didn't snap shot by shot, but it really isn't difficult. Removal of 4 bolts (2 on the caliper and 2 on the caliper bracket). Only key is, DON'T hand the caliper by the hose, either pin it behind the shock or get a coat hanger and hang it off the spring.
