that all depends on the model.<P>Fronts are EASY to do. <P>just need a "C-clamp" (to recompress the brake piston) <BR>and a set of sockets or wrenches. <BR>I think its a 17mm, but I could be wrong. <BR>I did mine the other day, took me 30 mins.<BR>JUst have to be careful with the springs/clips) holding in the pads. If you break them, you have to get them from Mazda.<P>[ December 09, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]<p>[ December 10, 2002: Message edited by: Custommx3 ]

Make sure the calipers slide back and forth easily. If not, take the sliders (things the caliper bolts screw into) out, clean and lube them.
