Thanks Dick. You've done this before I take it? 
I'm looking for instructions for someone that hasn't. The newbie. The guy that's going to order top quality after market pads/rotors and skip the dealership labor costs. This is my primary vehicle, so I've got to finish what I start that weekend, or I don't work.
What is punch back? And what is the suitable tool? What exactly is brake grease? I get taking off the tire and the concept of torque!
. How do you bleed brakes? I'm **** too! Torque values appreciated.

You have to push the hyd piston into the caliper. Sorry for the mis spell. Tool at auto zone or where ever....Cheap Napa for good rotors and pads. Buy a can of brake grease at a good parts store. I get the torques later if Forty fords doesn't help out.
