A decent Allen key for the front calipers, and mind your knuckles! Also make sure you remove the brake fluid reservoir lid is off. Also a nice strong flat edged item for pushing the piston back in! The clips holding the pads in place can fly off. You don't need to remove the whole caliper! |

Anything worth noting on the rears as there seem to be a lot of little bits in the box with the pads

There prob new 13mm bolts, there alot easier to do the rear ones! 2x spanners required to undo and tighten! |
