Jack up the car and take off the tire. After the tire has been removed, decompress the brake caliper and remove the brake shoes. Remove the 2 bolts attaching the caliper and remove the caliper. There are 2 more bolts left, they hold the caliper mount on. Remove those 2 and the Rotors wil come right off

Hey Nina==Take off the wheel then remove the 2 bolts holding the caliper on. Then pry on the caliper to compress the piston and remove the caliper. Hang the caliper with a coat hanger or wire and don't let it hang by the hose. Goodluck Joe
