The calipers are held on with two 15mm bolts. Just take the calipers off, and then back out the two little washers on the lug nuts...and then hit the back of the rotor a couple of times with a rubber mallet and they'll pop right off. I did this yesterday and that part of it was a breeze. What's a little tougher is getting the caliper bolts aligned again to put them back on; use a screwdriver or whatnot and make a couple of little scratch marks to align the caliper again. Also, DO NOT TAKE THE DARN SPRING OFF of the caliper!! If you're having trouble getting the outboard pad in, just use a flat object such as a flathead screwdriver to pry the caliper open a bit to get the pad in. It took me 2 seconds to get that darn spring off and two hours to get it on again.
