Question Can you help me verify that I have everything correct???

I've ordered HawK HPS Pads and RotorPros slotted and dimpled rotors.

Here are my questions:

1). Here are the part numbers I ordered for the brake pads:

HB299F.650 HPS $68/set
HB301F.630 HPS $59/set

Are they correct?

1). What kind of Grease do I use to re-pack the wheel bearings? What Brand is best etc...

2). Do I use the same Grease for the caliper slides? If not what kind, brand, etc...?

3). What kind of bearing packing tool should I buy?

4). Is there anything I need to grease on the rear brakes besides the caliper slides?

Thanks for anyone who will respond. I have been searching for answers to these questions for 2 days now and I still don't feel like I have the straight answer.

This will be my first brake job and I'm well...a little nervous.

Thanks again!

Jim

I have always used Castrol LM for wheel bearings.

As for grease on the caliper slides, I always used Copaslip because it's good for about 1100 deg and won't melts onto the pads. It's made by Molyslip.
Put a thin smear anywhere there is metal to metal contact.

You can get a "cheapo" bearing packer from Autobarn that works well for hobby use.

You might want to go out and get a Haynes or Chilton manual from Autozone or similar which will walk you through the procedure.

Best of luck.
