You should also take the opportunity to clean and re-lube the slider pins.

Good write up, just a note with the bedding in procedure... It is important that when doing the hard braking/ bedding in not to engage ABS (if your model has it), or come to a complete stop/ lock the brakes when braking hard because you risk glazing the pads straight away and they will start squealing early, that's just my 2 cents...
