How do I replace the rear brakes on an 05 xg350? What parts do I need? Do I need any special tools or equipment? How long should the job approximately take? Thanks for your help I don't even know where to begin

For brake pads you'll need a way to remove the lug nuts, lift and support the vehicle off the ground properly don't support the vehicle by a jack alone use a jack stand. Next remove the two bolts securing the brake caliper to the bracket. Then compress the brake caliper piston into its bore with large C clamp. Next remove the old brake pads. Then lubricate the end of the brake pads were the pads contact the caliper bracket (make sure not to get any lubricant on the friction surface on the rotor or friction material on the pads. Next install the brake caliper back on and tighten the two bolts and reinstall the wheel lug nuts (tighten lug nuts in a star pattern). Next do the same for the other side. ****MAKE SURE YOU PUMP THE BRAKE PEDAL AFTER REPAIR UNTIL THE BRAKE PEDAL GETS HARD TO PRESS*****
Let me know if you have any more question because you don't want to go wrong here with the parts that stops the vehicle.
