Take it for a 10 minute drive. Jack up that wheel and try to spin t by hand. If it is hard to turn crack the bleeder screw and allow a little brake fluid to flow out. Tighten the bleeder screw and now turn by hand. If it turns easier than I would suspect a partially collapsed or collapsed brake hose.
Normally it's not too tough to change the brake pads with minimal tools. You will need a large C clamp or brake tool to compress the brake caliper piston back into the caliper. I would check the condition of the brake rotors, if you have heard some scraping.
yes and no, you need a 4 inch or larger C clamp to push the wheel cylinder pistons in, other than that maybe a torx socket, have you ever changed any front disc brake pads before?
