Remove wheels
Remove caliper mounting bolts
Slide caliper off rotor
Rotor should slide off hub
Remove the wheel, the calipers and the rotors, reverse procedure with new rotors.
i have 2006 endeavor changing brakes do i have to remove the two screws in the rotor to remove so i can have resurfaced
If the truck has disc brakes on the rear then the park brake shoes are located inside the rear rotors. You have to remove the brake calipers, pads and rotors to access them

You don't need to, The disc pads will remove it instantly as soon as brakes are applied.
Remove the front tires, from your Pontiac Grand Prix. Remove the brakes and rotors. Unbolt the axle from the suspension. Remove the axle.
Have the front rotors turned on a lathe at a dealership. check brakes and rotors
No, the electronic steering has nothing in common with the brakes. If you have a warped rotors the fix is to remove the rotors and have them turned at a machine shop. Also replace the pads at this time, no matter how good they look.
It depends on your driving style and the condition of the calipers. If you ride the brakes or otherwise drive in such a manner as to cause the brakes to overheat, the rotors will warp prematurely. If you are constantly in stop-and-go driving conditions you will wear out the brake pads and rotors much faster than someone who drives greater distances and seldom uses the brakes. I've seen some people who get little more than 20,000 miles from brakes and/or rotors. My last brake pads and rotors had over 70,000 miles when I changed them, but then, we drive long distances here.
Typically rotors come from the factory covered with a waxy material to prevent rust. Yes, it's a good idea to remove that material before using the brakes.
Remove the tire and wheel. Remove the brake pad hardware. Remove the brake pads. Remove the rotor. Reverse the process to install the new brake pads and rotors.
Rotors warp when they overheat. Perhaps you're riding the brakes, have a sticking caliper or are going downhill a lot and are overheating the brakes that way. Often pulling a trailer will overheat the brakes, especially if the trailer does not have electric brakes. If none of the above seem to apply to your situation, perhaps someone put cheaper rotors on the vehicle; some of the import rotors look the same but they warp quite easily. Also not torquing the lug nuts correctly can warp the rotors. If the lug nuts are put on too tight the rotors will warp on some vehicles.
