yup big allen key, not sure of the size off the top of my head.. if the rotors dont come off by pulling on them just hit em with a rubber mallet or wrap a towel around em and hit em with a hammer-Aaron, AKA ATL2001<br />93 3.4L <br /><a href=\"http://www.ilfba.com\" target=\"_blank\">www.ilfba.com</a>Comment

<---- just changed front brake pads 1-2 hrs ago.
Stop by an auto parts store....They should have an allen key set for brakes.
Insert the allen bit into the caliper in the back.
You will end up loosening 2 bolts, 1 on top, 1 on bottom.
Don't wack the rotor off with a hammer.... I have NEVER needed to do that.
Take a big screw driver and pry off the caliper. It should come off easily.
Once the caliper is off then remove old pads.
Then take a big c clamp and open up the insides of the caliper's so you have enough room to put new pads on and slip them over the rotors.
Hope that helpsRace car - gone but not forgotten - 1997 firebird V6
