wow, that was almost stupid easy!
i'm going to be driving to denver in a week and cquence could not get new pads/rotors here in time. i knew i needed rear pads. the fronts are still good enough.
after reading wayne's 101 projects book, some threads on the forum and pedro's garage i figured i could tackle it myself.
what i did not expect was just how easy it really was. the hardest part was getting the retaining bolt off - it was pretty well embedded. but a little more gumption got it to start moving.
the first set took me around 20 minutes, the second set took around 10 minutes.
i just jacked each side up individually. removed the wheel. removed the retaining pin, pushed out the bolt, removed the spring, took out the sensors, pulled the pads, put in the new ones and went backwards until it was done.
i knew i needed rear pads but did not realize just how worn they were. thankfully the brake light never came on and the sensor is still good, but it would not have made it another 3500 miles...
when i get back i'll be replacing all 4 pads and rotors with the cquence parts.
