replacing front brake pads (procedure)
i have done my own disc brakes on numerous chevys for years and drums o jeeps too, but the calipers on my 90 Bronco (fullsize) are different enough to be confusing even looking at the chiltons manuel. what is the best source for a go-by for procedure on replacing the brake pads (front) on this Bronco?? i sure hate to sound so stupid, but i just dont get it when i look at the calipers/rotors and the chiltons book. i usually figure these things out but i am at a wall here...

I have never done any other car lately, but I think they are very simple. Just take out the 2 bolts from behind, bend the spring tabs a bit and remove the pads. Much simpler than drum brakes, IMHO.
