Remove wheel. Remove caliper (2 bolts) be careful not to damage hose-use coat hanger or something to support the weight. remove cap from middle of rotor. Remove cotter pin/nut in center (1), pull directly towards you. Bearings (2)should be removed inspected & repacked. Those & rear seal can go on new one. Reverse the procedure. Do not over torque castle nut when you reinstall-you will fry your bearings if you do. Check torque specs since these can be as little as 8# (which is next to nothing-hence the cotter pin)
You should use new brake pads with a new rotor so they wear in together. These just clip onto the caliper. You will have to separate the pads manually to open them up to slip caliper back on.
