Subject:Re: Has anyone done front brakes on Eurovan?
Date:Wed, 1 Nov 1995 13:41:40 -0800

I have!

    Piece of cake!  I paid abou $60 for my pads, make sure they are 
semi-metallic.  
    I think the only tool I needed was a small screwdriver, the job is 
self explanatory.  I dont recall if they are vented but I do know YOU 
MUST HAVE THE ROTORS TURNED.
