Morning everyone. I hope you had a great weekend. Mine has been spent under the covers in a blacked out room dealing with a migraine. I don't know how long I will be out of my hole but I have to try to get my homework caught up.

Ok guys,
Dumb question for ya...
I need some mechanical help on my Toyota.
Do I need any speciatyl tools to change out the brake pads?
I guess I have to do it myself, since Jimmy drove it until they were metal to metal & doesn't seem to have the time to be bothered with it.
Thanks in advance for your advice.

You will probably also want a caliper depressing tool so you can get the new pads on the caliper. Autozone has them and will loan it to you.

Wow...that's cool! A specialty tool & a make shift specialty tool. I have a 6" C clamp too! Maybe today if it warms up some more I'll try to tackle the brake job. Atleast I have Olfthfl for transportation if I can't figure it out. LOL!

Donna, all you really need is a basic set of hand tools in metric and a C-clamp to do breaks on your 4 Runner. Only other thing I can think of would be determined by you setup. sometimes they have a screw holding the rotor in place. These tend to corrode and stick, so you might also need and impact screw driver. it's a spring loaded screw driver you hit with hammer.
