Different models and years of vehicle use different-sized fasteners, and every effort has been taken
to correctly identify the proper sized tool for each step of the installation. Occasionally, however,
manufacturers may use an alternate fastener, so it’s advisable to check that each tool correctly fits
the fastener before loosening or tightening it. The following tools and equipment will be needed:

16mm wrench or socket (1/2” drive suggested)
14mm wrench or socket (in some cases, 9/16” may be required)
14mm line wrench
11mm flare wrench
11mm box wrench (in addition, an 11mm flare wrench is also recommended)
1/2” socket (3/8” drive suggested)
T-50 Torx wrench or socket
T-25 Torx wrench
5mm Allen (hex) wrench
Torque wrenches capable of 10-85 lb-ft settings
Small drip tray or several rags
Small funnel or suitable means of filling master cylinder reservoir
Anti-seize compound
Brake bleed bottle
1 pair of jack stands or other means of supporting the vehicle
Plastic or non-marring mallet
DOT 3 or 4 Brake Fluid. Check manufacturer’s recommendation for compatibility. StopTech
recommends flushing brake fluid every one-to-two years, or more often under severe usage condi-
tions. If not done recently, the installation of a brake kit is an excellent opportunity to refresh your
brake fluid, or to upgrade to a higher-performance fluid, such as Motul 600.
