Does anyone have any advice on removing the rear rotors? I changed my fronts with slotted and cross drilled rotors and ceramic pads..it was cake took no time at all to do. I was going to do my rears at the same time but was having trouble removing the rotor. I am not sure if they were just on there real good or if there is a trick to taking them off. The rear pads and rotors still had life left on them so I figured I would wait until I could figure out exactly how to take them off. Am I missing something to take them off? I dont have to remove the center nut do I? Thanks for the help.

Remove the two 10mm caliper guide bolts holding the caliper from the back. Set these aside. Swing the caliper up and out. One pad slots into the piston, The other pad slots onto the caliper. Take off the front pad first, then the one that slots into the piston. Set these aside. Again, to remove the rotors, pull the retaining clip and wiggle the disc back and forth as you pull it towards you. MAKE SURE THE EMERGENCY BRAKE IS OFF! The e-brake uses a drum setup inside the disc, and if it's on, you'll never get the disc off. Congratulations, the disassembly is over.
