Hey folks... Its time for me to do my brakes on my 1996 FZJ80. I wanted to put together a list of parts, supplies, information, and tools needed. I'd also like to gather "nice to do items". I looked around mud a bit but really couldn't find a good list. My goal is to a complete brake job and maybe some of the "nice to do items"
Update 08/27/2016 -- I completed my brake job see post #8
I'm just starting my list and I'll add updates from the posts below as time goes on.
Here is the list so far -- Any thoughts or suggestions?
Special Tools outside the normal --
54mm Socket
Snap Ring Tool
Brass Hammer
Brake Bleeder Kit (Posts #2, #5)
Supplies -
High Temp Wheel Grease
Brake Cleaner - cleaning up that grease
Brake Fluid
Parts Both (Front and Rear) -
Brake Pads
Rotors
Calipers (Post #5)
Parts Front Only -
Hub Seals (Post #5)
Parts Rear Only -
E-Brake Pads
Hub Seals (Post #5)
Extra Nice to do Items --
Wheel Studs -- Replace them if they are bad
Front Wheel bearings
Brake Lines -- Replace or Extend? In 2014 I used these - Dorman Brake Hoses -- H380535 H380233 H621096 H380428 H380234 H380427 H380234, yours may vary.
e-brake shoe hardware -- I'm split on this, I did mine in 2013 as the parts were in bad shape
