@rexcramer

I got the ones from pelicanparts. Rotors were Meyle (heard good things about them) $50-60 a corner, pads were oem-ish and $100. Got new screws/brake hardware at the same time. Old pads were good but just decided to do all of them together. Are you planning a brake job soon too?

i can't really visualize the set up in my head but i like the idea of using the cars weight to remove a part. Thanks for the tip tho, parts are really tough to remove sometimes and any leverage will save me a lot of headache. Will pop by a home depot and pick up a ratchet strap tmr!
