How do you do it? I see the caliper, but i cant see much behind it. I get this funny grinding noise in the front passenger. i searched a while and i think its the pads. its been A WHILE since theyve been replaced and for some reason my front pass is the wheel that gets the dirtiest after driving for a while. i'll take the wheel off if its a must, but i dont want to if its not necessary
