I understand that Brake Pads are not very hard to change. I have a 1999 RR 4.6 and I want to do this myself. Any man should be able to change their own brakes right? So I was hoping that someone could point me to a web site that has pictures and uses words that aren't too big. | ||

It is very easy, these are instructions for a DII, but it is exactly the same: http://www.expeditionexchange.com/disco2brakes/indexmain.htm I used a large C-Clamps on the caliper housing to retract the pistons, instead of channel locks, I would also use the old brake pad against the pistons along with the c-clamps to retract the pistons. | ||

Thnak you Alan that article referal it was very helpful and I changed the pads last night. Although the first wheel took me almost an hour I was able to finish the other 3 inless then 45 minutes total. I was surprised at how easy it was. | ||
