Land Rover Repair: 1998 Discovery rear rotors and front pads, land rover discovery, rear rotors


Question
I am about to do a rear rotor and pad replacement on my 1998 Land Rover Discovery.  I am wondering how to remove the rear rotors and what extra parts besides rotors and pads will I need.  Also when replacing the front pads will I need any other parts besides just the pads.  I have done many brake jobs on Chevy and Fords and when I looked at the rear on the Land Rover I was blown away.  Thanks for any help!!!

Answer
To change front pads, all you need is the pads.

To change rear rotors, you remove the calipers, then remove the hub nuts in the middle and remove the hub/brake rotor.  You separate the rotor from the hub to change it.

Since it's all apart you should look at packing wheel bearings and changing seals while out.  Be careful not to damage the toothed wheel for the ABS when you remove the rotor.  It's over $200 if you ruin it.
