oh man, it was a pain in the ass compared to the rears!.. first, the brakelines in copper couldn't hold up anymore, and I had my garage custom make me some new on the spot. Then, the two small screws holding the disk flush to the hub were seized up... took me 2 hours to get them off.. After that it went pretty smooth. Bleeding is always a boring mess... End result however was great. It hurts your body if you floor the brakepedal now..
