Hi, anyone has changed front brake pads on your own? Can advise what special tools required besides the norm? Do i need a c-clamp to push the new pads in? ( I saw that on youtube) Lastly, how long did it take? Thanks in advance!

unscrew two screw from the caliper, push the piston in with a cg clamp. fix the brake pad. screw back the screw . go in and pump the brake pedal.

g clamp can easily buy from hardware shop. don't need to drsain the brake fluid. open the cover because when you push back the piston the fluid were over flow.disk is very easy to change. drum its difficult to change.i always diy myself.
