I gotta change the brakes. Are there any problems or things that I'm gonna run into that you guys help keep me away from. Any tips or tricks. Thanks

its a straight forward job, just clean and grease the o-ring seals before reinstalling them. The only thing i would suggest is change to brake cover seal while your there and inspect the bearings.

The thing the axle nut has around 100lbs of torque on it, so an impact or long breaker bar would be nice.
