I know that for the rear I will need some kind of a tool to put the pads back in. As to the fron, Bentley mentions some hex scres that I am supposed to have new. Anyone know how to get these?

I have new pads, and normal toon (inlcuding rear brake tool). Do I need anythig else?

You don't need any special tools for the front pads.

1. Break wheel lugs.
2. Jack up car and support with jackstand.
3. Remove wheel.
4. Unclip spring clasp on top of the caliper with a pair of pliers. (I've found chanel locks to be very helpful here)
5. If they are your original stock pads stick a flat head screwdriver between the backing plate and the caliper to break the adhesive.
6. Unclip brake pad sensor harness, you a small flat head screwdriver to unclip it.
7. Pull out pads.
8. Reverse the above process with the new pads on.

Try a bicycle pedal wrench. That is what I use. About $10 from a bike store.

breaker bar to the mix. The jaws of life that firemen use to extract people from wrecked cars might help too. ;-)

You need skills ;-) I can do a side in about 10 minutes.

Hopefully there will be some skilled people at Pocono this weekend!

It's not difficult, but it can be a PITA if things stick like mine like to.
