🛠️ Bob's "Get It Done Right" Companion Checklist
Before you get cracking on those rotors, mate, let's make sure you're sorted with a few essentials. First off, safety glasses are a must – no one wants metal shards in their peepers!

And while you're at it, a can of Brake Cleaner will make short work of blasting away brake dust and grime. Don't forget some anti-seize caliper grease for the caliper bolts to make the job easier next time around. Safety first, cleanliness next, sorted!

🧰 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: Keep a pack of Nitrile Gloves handy to protect your hands from grease and dust.
• Clean and Prep: Use Brake Cleaner to clean the anti-corrosion shipping oil off the new rotors before mounting the calipers.
• Lubrication: Apply caliper grease to caliper slide pins and pad contact points to prevent squealing.
