Im changing my 1992 toyota paseo car brakes one at a time since Im going to use the jack the car came with, is it okay to change one side, and then lower the vehicle and then do the other side? any ups or downs to this?
Can I change my car brakes one side at a time?
Yeah you can do that just be sure you get a jack stand also don't depend on the Jack alone,also be sure to pump your brakes after your done,(before moving vehicle)

Yeah, that's the normal method. when they say you need to replace both at the same time, they just mean %26quot;Don't do one tire and completely ignore the other one%26quot;. By the time you put the jack away, both brakes should be replaced. Jack up one side, replace the pads, put the tire back on, repeat for the other side.
Yes, you can do that. A couple of recommendations: If you're using the jack that came with the car, do not at any time get under the car or put any part of your body under the car in case it collapses. Those jack are flimsy. Pay a little extra and buy ceramic pads. Cheap semi-metallic pads have a good chance of squeaking or squealing. Use disc brake grease on any places where the brake pads will be touching the calipers. This will help ensure no squealing during the break-in period. After you are done, check the brake fluid level before you pump the brakes. The fluid lelvel will drop when you pump th brakes, as the caliper pistons extend. You don't want air to get sucked into the brake lines.
Thats best
Is this a %26quot;Trick Question??%26quot;
no you have to change them in pairs . they wear evenly . if they dont you have a problam
