there has to be a special tool .. the caliber needs to be turned while its being compressed. i used a pair of channel locks to turn the caliber while using a c clamp to compressing it good luck.. keep an eye on the fluid level..
No special tools needed.

Tools needed to replace front brakes 2002 Ford Focus?
what tools do i use to change the front brakes in my 2003 Pontiac grand prix
Metric combination wrenches, socket set,possibly metric Allen wrench set, jack stands and hydraulic jack. Get a Haynes manual also available at NAPA parts stores.I hope this helps.
The brakes on the Villager are as straight forward as the brakes on a 1965 Mercury. Only normal brake tools are required.
To replace brakes effectively, you need to know what type of brakes you have. In general, you will need a jack, new brakes, a wrench and Allen wrenches.
Probably basic hand tools and perhaps a brake spring tool. If you pick up a shop manual for the car and read their directions, you should get some idea what you'll need.
First of all, Do you have any specialty brake tools? Ben
Drums are not a job for beginners. With the right tools & a manual you could do it.
first off are they disk brakes, (like the front one)? or drum brakes?
It depends greatly on the repair needed and the tools you have on hand in determining how long it takes to repair brakes and brake services. If you don't have that have a professional do it.
