Front brake overhaul
I have a couple days off after labor day and I plan on disassembling the front calipers and overhauling them. I have Brembo rotors and new pads to replace the stock stuff. I want to get all possible parts and supplies so I can get everything done in one day. What all do you think I need?
Also, what's the simplest way to replace the brake fluid? This will be my first time. Is there any brand that's highly recommended by you guys?
Thanks,
Chris

RE: Front brake overhaul
your gonna need some brake quiet its goo you put on the back of your pads to keep them from vibrating and makin noise. also you need some way to retract the calipers I use the old pads and a wrench and just pry make sure you brake fluid tank is open you can only do this with the fronts
To change the fluid Id say the easiest way is to bleed all the old fluid out and keep topping off the fluid until you get the new fluid bleeding out youll have to do it at all four wheels though
