Default 2008/2009/2010 Front Brake Change - DIY Question... quick one..

Hi all, I am experienced with changing brake in different cars.. but have never worked on my 2009 Caravan before....

Just wondering... any things / tips anyone here can share? ie: any special tools required? Any things that is out of the norm? Is it a pretty standard setup (remove a hex bolt, swing the caliper up and out.. out and in new pad)?

Sorry.. forgot to mention... this is the front brake I am hoping to work on..

many many thanks!
Wilson

Well, I just always take the WHOLE caliper assembly off. The two BIG bolts. Hang them from the strut with bungie cords to keep the stress off the hoses. Pretty basic.
