Brake question... yes im a new B.

[Road_Runna]

Ok, I have done an intake manifold install by myself (ok, my younger brother helped some). Pulley's intall by myself, everything in my sig, except the gears where done by Ford.
Now this is my first time ever doing brakes, and im having troubles changing them.
I have the t-50 star wrench, and am TRIENG to turn it counter clock wise, but it won't turn at all. Am I suppose to disconnect anything else before I turn it ? Or does it seem that I need a lil bit more muscle to turn that damn bolt. bolt.

After that I guess, im going to have to do some schimming on those rotors.

hit the gym, get some muscles, crack at it again. make sure you are going the right way, misdirection is a bitch. just remember what perspective you are doing it from

It takes quite a bit of muscle to break those torx heads loose. Also be sure you're turning them the right way since you're looking at it backwards. As you sit in front of the rotor, the wrench should be on the other side of the caliper and turning clockwise (CCW if you were looking at it from inside the wheelwell).

sometimes i take a pipe and stick it over the wrench, cuz you know us stangers like more torque

those things have to be tight, and remember when u put it back in to tighten it up real good... don't want to loose brakes

when all else fails get some power tools, also you good try some bolt breaker lubricant, it helps just dont get it on your new gear.
