Okay, guys. I need some help.

Tried searching the write-ups but couldn't find exactly what I'm looking for.

What I need is a step by step, picture by picture account of an actual front brake pad change on a 2002 4Runner Sport 4 wheel drive. I have never done brakes before and I am scared. It's not so much the parts I have questions about (although recommendations are welcomed), it's the procedure and the tools I need to do it correctly. I'm planning on only switching out the pads for now, as they are shot and the rotors aren't bad.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

thanks for that link Elton. I have not attempted a brake job on my 97 4Runner, and before I took the tire off I wanted to know what I was getting into and that link just assured me I can confidently replace my pad with out any wacky tools or problems.

my Rotors have waves in them and hopefully they can be turned so I can save a few bucks on buying new ones.
