Tools are expensive but I saw a bottle jack and factory wrench being used.

Also I would suggest something like this.

I use it all the time at home it saves the knees.
The rears were easy as pie and I used the same tools so I don't know what you're talking bout because the piston was easier to push back in with the C clamps and I could actually rest the caliper on the rotor while I got the rears and in the fronts you can't rest the caliper on anything as the brake line is to short. I guess everyone is different but I tried to rest the caliper on the passenger before I shot this video and for the life of me I couldn't.

For me the rears were easier but I could be doing it wrong and I didn't have any channel locks and I don't know if it will even fit but using a c clamp is a pain in the butt. I am glad I got the rears and the fronts done. Gonna have to wait until another 50k to replace pads again , rotors, and bleed the brake line.
