Start by releasing the handbrake, and chocking the front wheels (put it in park, too).
REmove the rear wheels. (take obvious precautions with jackstands, etc.) Remove the two caliper mounting bolts and suspend the caliper with a piece of wire from the spring (i.e. don't let it dangle by the brake line. The rotor should pop right off. The wild card factor is RUST. Gently tapping on the rotor with a mallet might help. Sometimes you will need a puller.
When you put the new rotor on, make sure you have cleaned it with plenty of brake cleaner. As you install it, you will notice that there are tiny brake shoes on the hub. That is your emergency brake. That's what keeps the rotor from coming off most times. By releasing the emergency brake before you get started, you skip this frustrating obstacle.
The New rotor goes on, reinstall the caliper by slipping it over the rotor and retighten the caliper bolts. Reinstall the wheels, remove jackstands, lower car and check for excess nuts and bolts. Gently Road test the vehicle.
