When they wear out. There is no set time to change them as they wear differently depending on how you drive and where.
When the "Brakes" light on your dash comes on, or if you hear "metal to metal" scraping from them.
I have a 99 A6 quattro and have changed the brakes out on it multiple times. email me if you need to know anything. Doster@marshall.edu
The front brakes on the Windstar are disc brakes. The rear brakes are drum type. You need to know exactly which parts need to be changed and why. If it is just the pads its pretty easy to do. But if the rotors are bad too, you will need to remove the calipers to access them then re-install the calipers with new pads. If you are not sure what you are doing seek advice from a mechanic
It will last the life of the engine and is changed during a complete engine overhaul.
i did my brakes most of the time it will only need an hour of my time to do both front brakes.....
What size wrench do you need to change the front brakes on a 2001 dodge durango?"
The front brakes on any vehicle do most of the stopping. When you apply the brakes the weight shifts to the front of the vehicle. For this reason the front brakes are needed more than the rear. Try stopping a vehicle with just the hand brake which applies only the rear brakes.
I need a daigram of the rear brakes being changed
No you don't, the front and rear brakes are independent of one another. -Sean Ford Mechanic Riverside,CA
Rear brakes do not have to be replaced too often. It's really hard to tell without looking at it. What you can do is to replace front brakes and test drive it, if you feel that your car brakes works just fine you do not need to replace rear brake shoes.
