Brake Pads

My rear brake pads are shot. Is it easy to change them myself? I like to learn new things, but I have a low tolerance and no time for major fix-it-yourself headaches right now.

Not hard at all, provided you have a bleeder and a one-way valve. I can show you sometime if you want.

Cheese cake is way harder to make then changing your brake pads. I shouldnt take more than 30 min - 1 hour

Y'all are awesome! Thanks for all of the offers. Any recommendations on a local shop that sells brake pads?

Desmoto usually has a supply of EBC pads, although I don't know how many rears they sell.

They've been good at getting rear pads for me. But make sure you get the right ones for your caliper.
BTW - Tim floated the idea of making a video on how to do this. I'm not exactly the right person to make the video, but I know how to get the job done. Maybe we do a wrenching clinic with duckwrench sometime and let him be the YouTube star?

ACE Motorsports was supposed to be ordering some more EBC rear brake pads, I bought some fronts form them and they said they were expecting some rears shortly.

You could always call that other shop.
