E450 Rear Brake Pad Replacement - long post w/pics

j-d - Thanks for going to the effort of checking those items. I know my front caliper pins are Torx. IIRC size 30, but I have a full set anyway.

The maintenance schedule said to repack the front bearings at 60,000 miles. I bought the seals, but never did the job due to the high torque on the bracket bolts. My torque wrench only goes to 150 ft-lb. The bearings are still smooth and quiet when I rotate the front tires so I'm comfortable that all is still OK.
