I use slip-joint adjustable pliers to squeeze the pad against the caliper - I use a rag on the caliper side so I do not damage the caliper.

I've used this for 6 years on various cars. Tiny and fits in my tool box.

So much depends on the model of car and caliper stock or aftermarket? Some calipers use hex wrenches to access pads some box wrenches. I don't see a jackstand on your list. Some people stick their body where they should not then a stand is important. What about bleed hose and bottle? Many don't like to force bad fluid back into the system and open bleeders as they retract pads. Changing pads is a good time to bleed brakes. A 2x4 under the brake pedal to bleed is good for a streetcar that see 10's of thousands of miles between pads changes. Full bleed pedal travel to the floor is fine for racecars that get serviced all the time.

Don't forget the paste for the edges of the pads

A six pack of beer gets it done at any track I've been to.

That sounds like an offer.

Not sure what type calipers you have, if closed type requiring caliper removal then the correct bit for the caliper bolts, spare caliper bolts, zip ties/ bunjees to hold the caliper. If the open type, carry spare spring clip set. Those tiny clips holding the pins can disappear. Personally, I hate working on brakes at the track and will toss pads at 50% + just to have fresh pads that I know will make it through the event. Would rather hang out, look at data, etc, between sessions.

Same. Has worked on every car I've ever had.
