Does anyone change their own front brakes?

Hi guys. Thinking about replacing the front brake pads myself. Was wondering is anyone on here has done it themselves as well. I’m an industrial mechanic for Anheuser Busch by trade. The mechanical part doesn’t worry me. But lifting the coach does. My Thor ACE isn’t equipped with leveling jacks so I’ll be using my 12 ton bottle jack (one wheel at a time).

So has anyone on here try job that themselves? If so, what are the torque specs?

My reasoning is, the shops want about $400 or more for the job. I just purchased the pads for $110, I can’t justify $300 in labor haha.
