How difficult to perform brake work on a 740? (archive)

Posted by bimmernut on December 16, 2001 at 11:56:48:

After the recent dealer's bill for replacing brake pads and rotors, I thought I'd consider doing my own work. I've always left maintenance on my 93 740iL to the dealer, although I do perform work on my 911. Just finishing total brake line and rotor replacement and caliper rebuild on it.

How difficult is it to replace pads and rotors on the 740? Any special tools needed or tricks I need to know? If I start doing my own mechanical work, what is the best tech manual to buy?

thanks in advance
