No special tools required except for maybe a large c-clamp and an old pad to compress the piston back down.

For the pin, I would recommend some high temp synthetic grease and for the pads, some disc brake quiet should do the trick.

^ Yeah. It has a higher temperature tolerance. "Grease" will get too thin and run out, or so, when it gets hot enough.

I'm using it on a road race car. I pitch the pad anti-sqeal stuff.
