Smile Tool check! .. Rotor/pad change

I'm about to change Rotors/pads all round on my 97 Z28, apart from the obvious jack/wheel wrench is there any special tools required?

I have a G-Clamp for winding the piston back in but would like to check what size allen wrench for the calliper bolts (I think it's 5/8 for the front but dunno if the rears are the same).

+ I have copper ease brake grease. Anything else?

Not sure about the allen sizes, but it would appear that you have what you need. Good luck, this is probably the easiest thing in the world to do, especially all disk brake. I know people who did brakes on the side for people and made some decent money at it.

most of the aftermarket rotors are thicker than stock on the rear so if u are using aftermarket u may have to go with longer lug studs.
