Are there any special tools or precautions that I need to look for when changing my brakes.

Make sure to loosen the bleeder screws before removing the calipers. Then before pushing the pistons back into the calipers, open the bleeder screws and let the brake fluid be forced out of the bleeders intead of being forced back up into the ABS pump when the pistons are pushed back into the calipers.
