I need new break pads for my car and was wondering how hard is it to do?
Thanks

 

Disc brake pads.......easy as making a cake. Oh who am I kidding I acn't make a cake. But they are easy. Need an allen to take the sliders out. Clean them and use a little lube on them. There is rubber o-rings inside where the pins slide in the calliper. Just check that they are there and look ok. They usualy are. Also remove the sleeve that the slider bolt goes through and clean and lube.
Use your old pads to pry on to push the piston back in. Or if you have a "c" clamp that works great.
If you are doing drum shoes in the rear. Whew........just be sure to do one side at a time so you can look at the other to get it back together right. Make note of which shoes have the longer lining on them.
