Need info on replacing front disc pads on a 2003 F350 FX4 - Diesel Forum

I would like to replace the front disc pads on my 2003 F350 FX4 and have the rotors turned. I've done this on a number of other vehicles - never on something this large. I looked at the calipers and there appears to be 4 bolts on the inside (engine side). Two are larger than the other 2. Do only the 2 largest (top and bottom) ones need to be removed? If someone who has done this could give me a quick run-thru, I'd sure appreciate it or point me in a direction with some DIY instructions.

Thanks,
Professor

Remove the larger ones, I think,, (The two that hold the bracket on,,)remove the caliper and bracket there it mounts to the spindal, you need the bracket off to get the rotor off too. IF You were just doing pads then the smaller bolts would just remove the caliper...
