2017 Camaro SS - changing brakes - list of tools needed?
Hi all,
Perhaps someone raised this question but I couldn’t find similar questions so here I go.
So my Chevrolet dealership wants to charge me 1,500 for new brakes and rotors. First I don’t think I need it, sense my car only has 32k miles, but let’s assume they do.
I think it’s too much money, I’ve googled videos and seems like something not too difficult to do myself. I’m very handy so I think I will manage.
Here I go with my questions:
- any recommendations on brakes and rotors? I see some on amazon, 450 for a set for all 4 wheels.. seems like a good deal.
- what tools do I need to get the work done? For example, watching the videos they have what looks like a screwdriver, some pointy stuff and a hammer to release the brake pads. Then there are some screws behind the calipers to detach the calipers from the rotors.. then there is a screw for the rotors to remove them.
Seems easy, just need some specific details on tools needed.. don’t want to start and then realize I’m missing a freakin tool.
Thanks guys, im also considering on painting my brakes, I have the black brembo, want to see some red!!
Thanks again!
