Not hard at all, I had to change mine when I tried to see how my car could handle offroad.

yeah i checked it out with a straight edge. its perfect. the squeak was just the rotor pushing on the pads, making them scratch and squeak.

really? sweet.

anyway this axleshaft was such an awesome thing. today i went cruising for like an hour and i had the windows down the whole time. it was great. nice and peaceful. unless i got on it. then there was a roar. but thats better than a constant, persistant *squeak*squeak*squeak*. life is good. i am no longer haunted by the sound. haha yesterday though i heard a car outside my house hitting the brakes and the brakes squeaked and it made me cringe hearing that, but it was okay cuz i know it wasnt carmen
