If you have never done it before, it will be somewhat challenging. The Hayes manual is alright as a guide.

Necessary tools, I would get a long say 17" or 19" flex handle (to accept 1/2" sockets) to give you the necessary leverage. A good socket set (I can't remember off hand but I think its either a 13mm or a 15mm that you will need), a flat scraper, hydralic jack and stands for safetly, and patience. A second set of hands sometimes helps out when trying to but that spring clip back over the caliper to hold the pads down. There is more but thats all I can think off right now off the top of my head....I can email you directions if you need them.
