Front brake pad change DIY?
Hi guys my name is Derek
I was wondering if anyone here has a DIY on a front brake pad change.
I have a 2007 Toyota Tacoma Double cab Prerunner 4x2.
I know the basics but a step by step guide would be really helpful, also knowing all the torque settings for the bolts would be great.

Thanks in advance

Buy a chiltons or Haynes if you plan on working on your truck!! Great Resource!

I have not yet done it but I have never had a disc job that was hard.
Drums are a PITA if you don't have the right tools
