Front brakes

[oldslowchevy]

2015 LT, sedan, 1.8. When I get home in July I am going to have to put pads and rotors on my wife's car. That said is there any specific tools that I might need that I don't currently have? Large torx, allen, or other odd ball things?

By the way summit racing has the stock style rotors by bendix for $27 each.

Nothing special, just standard metric fasteners. I think it was 18mm if you swap pads by removing the caliper bracket or 8mm (possibly 10mm) if you leave the bracket on and remove the caliper. Either way works.

Edit: Sorry, yeah to remove the rotors you'll need to remove the caliper brackets.

Thank you Stew, I didn't think it would be anything terrible but. The newest thing I have worked on has been my old 97 chevy Silverado. Just wanted to make sure first.
