Doing my front brakes?
 
I have a 2010 Ford Escape, built in January. Does anyone know what size HEX key I need to remove the front brakes from the roter. Thank you very much.

For less than $10 you can buy a hex key for a ratchet, specifically made for those brakes.

Thank you, but where would I go to get this? I live in Canada and do not know where to go to get this part for my ratchet? I would really appreciate if you could give me the name of a company I would find in canada. thank you

Any auto parts store should have it in their tool section.

It might not be a bad idea to watch a few U tube videos on the correct way to replace front pads and what to check before just taking out old and inserting replacement pads.
I gather from your questions you may not have very much experience there and after the brakes don't work properly is not the best way to learn.

Thank you, I have done it in the past, but never with a hex key. Did my Toyota and another care as well.
