First wheel pass side did not want to come off...started having bad recollections of people having their wheels stuck on for one reason or another and major surgery to remove them... just had to grunt and pull kick and pull and it fought and came off. Ok so now to the caliper for the rear brakes. After figuring out I started working on the wrong bolt (thanks to fastcougar.com) I started working on the right two bolts. Got them out and the pass caliper off and now to remove the rotor...GGGGRRRUNT...now to remove the rotor.....ummmm NOW to remove the...wait I need more tools....go to get the hammer!!!!  GRRRR Bang on rotor hub a couple times...then pull and then bang on the lug studs and pull and voila it is off...ugh so after figuring out how to put the pads on and fighting fighting and fighting more they were on on both sides and I bled a bit, bought some more tools and can say that has been done...really wanted to put some ceramic pads on it but we could not find someone with ceramic local and the other pads were GONE!!!
Anyway
Fun fun fun
