naw

compress the piston in the caliper w/ a C-clamp. then just take off the bottom bolt and loosen the top one and then u can flip the caliper up. take off the old pads, put in the new ones and dont forget the retainers and spacers. flip the caliper back down, reinstall the bottom bolt, tighten the top one, and put the wheel back on.

its easier than it seems

stop the squealing by smearing anti squeal grease (Copperslip) on the back of the pads - this side that mates with the piston NOT the disc.

i like my AEM pads too. get some of them.

BTW - you dont need a new brake 'pad', you need new brake 'pads' (2 per rotor, so you need 4)
