What tools are needed to change breaks on 2002 Saturn vue?

Answer 1

need to know if its a rotor in which case you need some sockets and a tool to turn the caliper just for rear disk brakes. and if you have drums you will need a basic brake tool set it cheaper to get everything and you can use it for almost all brakes that have drum. it will have a the spring tool and what looks like a screwdriver with a socket on the end for getting the hold down spring. and two spoons which are flat bars that turn the adjuster from behind the drum. you will need to replace the wheel cylinder if you see anything leaking inside the drum. since this will keep leaking and screws the brake shoes. clean the parts with brake cleaner and another suggestion. when taking the parts off keep the parts in order on the floor so you can remember what goes where and only take one side off at a time so you can look at the other side to help putting it back togeher. i case you forgot something or need help. i do this and i have doing repairs for years i saves time and you don't mix up the parts since some parts need to go on the same side they come off.
