Hi yall,
I am new to this forum, but I've been looking in the threads for about 2 months trying to find someone who posted pictures or gave details on how to install new rotors and pads. I have an '04 hatchback. I really need to know what tools i will need. It's just an OEM replacement and I am semi-mechanically capable of doing things myself as long as no special tools are required. I know there are two screws in each rotor that require a philips-head driver (i saw those while rotating the tires every 10k), but what socket sizes for removing the calipers and brake pads? And is there anything i should be careful of/look for besides making sure the calipers dont hang? I have changed carbs and headers etc.. on my fathers old truck a few times so this shouldn't be too difficult, I just dont want to get the car jacked up and then be stuck scratching my head and not being able to have a DD. Thanks a bunch for any help!
