🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking on those brakes, mate, a few quick words from yours truly. Brakes are safety-critical, so no cutting corners!
• Safety First! Never, ever get under a car supported only by a jack. Use proper jack stands. Seriously. Jack Stands
• Keep it Clean: Brake dust is nasty stuff. A can of Brake Cleaner will blast it away. Makes the job easier too.
• Glove Up: Protect your hands from the grime with some heavy-duty Nitrile Gloves. Your hands will thank you for it.
• Grease is the Word: Use a dab of anti-seize caliper grease on the caliper pins to keep everything moving smoothly. This helps prevent squealing, too!
• Eye Protection: Safety glasses are a must. Brake dust and debris can easily get into your eyes. Safety Glasses

🧰 What Else You'll Need:
• Safety First: Never work under a vehicle supported only by a jack. Always secure it on heavy-duty safety jack stands.
• Brake Dust Protection: Brakes get incredibly dirty. Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from stubborn brake dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use a high-quality Brake Cleaner spray to blast away stubborn dust, oil, and road grime from the caliper assembly and new rotors before reassembly.
• Lubrication: Apply a thin smear of high-temperature caliper grease to the pad backing plates and slide pins (keep it off the pad friction material!) to prevent squeals and ensure smooth caliper operation.
