This is definately a DYI. If you know which end of the hammer to use, you'll do okay

Safety is always a concern! Get a good pair of jack-stands. You should be able to get a pair of 3-ton stands at any good auto parts store. They'll run in the $30-50 range, but you'll get tons of use out of them in the future.

Always, always, always support the car with stands (on firm, level ground) anytime you have to lift a wheel off the ground! Chock the wheels also to prevent rolling -- don't trust the tranny or parking brake.

If you don't have a manual to show the R&R of the brakes, get one or let me know... I'll try to scan some pics and instructions from mine.... if I can find my manual..... I haven't used it for a while.

I can usually change out both sides of mine in under an hour, start to finish, but I've done it a few dozen times.

Doing it yourself will also save $$$. Front brake jobs at the local tire and auto will run $100 or more. You can save 80% by getting your own hands dirty, plus have the satisfaction of accomplishment. Good luck.
