I have changed the rotors and brake pads on the front in, but on the back end, I am having issues changing the rotors and pads. I believe I need some sort of torque wrench. If anyone can tell me the type of wrench I need to get the caliphers off the rear end, I would appreciate it. I am not an expert with fixing cars, but I do some of the work on my car to save money. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

I have to do my front ones soon. Do you know the size of the bolts to take off the caliper, is it 11mm?

The wrench you are looking for is called a torx socket. It looks like an allen wrench with a star shape on the end. You can buy only the size you need or a whole set. They also come in 3/8 or 1/2 in drive to fit your ratchets. They are described as T-10, T-20, T-30, T40, and so forth.

I believe you will need the 11mm, but have the 12mm on hand as well. It's between those two, I can remember which one.
