Hi,

Replacing the rear brake pads and rotors really isn't too hard to do. If you do it yourself, make sure to purchase lifetime parts. That way, you won't have to pay for them again.

To get you started, here is a link that shows in general how to replace rear brakes and rotors. You can use this as a guide.

If you look at the pics below, they include step by step directions and pics to help identify parts.

I hope this helps. Let me know if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
