Brake job coming
Brakes are squealing, and dragging and making all sorts of awful noise.
I ordered the Ceramic Akenobo pads and Centric rotors. I am hoping for less dust, my wheels always look really crappy from them. The rotors claim to be more resistant to corrosion (400 hrs of saltwater immersion, which is like 1 month of Michigan winter!) and were not much more than the OEM jobs. Here is a link to a review on a different forum--on a Lexus car. http://my.is/forums/f89/centric-roto...2010-a-366036/
From removing brakes on for the suspension I am guessing this is pretty straight forward. I should do a brake fluid flush at the time. Anything I should pay any particular attention to?

No, it is pretty straight forward, you will want to do a 2 quarts, DOT 4 , brake flush and you will want to put some penetrating fluid on the large philips screw that holds the rotor or you will have problems taking them off.
Shout if you have any questions.
