small word of advice and please dont take it the wrong way (JUST LOOKIN OUT FOR MY FELLOW LEX BRETHREN)

if you cant look at the job and ascertain whats req esp brake work then bring it to a pro for brakes are nothing to guess at ..


just my .02 cents worth .. good luck to ya

I'm familiar with brake jobs and I've done them before, I just need to know the size of the hex nut it looks like b/c it's not a regular metric nut.
