I worked on my brake this past weekend, changed rotors/pads. It went smoothly except I needed to run to Autozone to rent the rear caliper tool in the middle!(but it was a free rent

) anyway, I used DanO's DIY page and man, that helped a lot. i had the right tools and right steps and once you get used to it, it really isn't bad at all. I recommend people to do this job, it's really not bad.(It took me about 1-1.5 hours to do left then took about 30 min to do the right for each front and back. Once I did one side, the other side was easy and fast.)

So anyway, I jsut wanted to post a thanks to DanO for his thorough and informative DIY. I didn't even need shop manual!!!(though you should have one...) I'm sure it takes effort to write up a good DIY like that and I know many others have used it and are thankful. So Thanks DAN!

AK I also changed my Rotors to Powerslots and removed the front brake shields following Dano's step by step insructions. I admit it was pretty easy I installed the Dali shields also and everything turned out great his website is helpfull.
