When im changing my 400ex brakes got the old pads off and piston back in all i have to do is put the new pads on, with something to space them? Then just put all the bolts back together. No bleeding or anything, ima "rookie" so thanks for the help everyone.

Shouldn't have to. Push the puck all the way back and put it back together the way you took it off.

Edit- Don't forget to brillo off and lube your pins with a light lubricant to help the pads slide on them.

Pins, what do u mean? the ones that hold the pads in?

Yeah, the ones the pads slide on. If they get a little corroded or galled they reduce brake performance. The should be very smooth.
