Rotor info needed!?!

I did a search

How do you remove the front and rear rotors? Do you just take the calipers off (not bleeding the calipers) and they slide off the Hubs? Any info would be greatly appreciated!!!

In a word: yes.

Basically, take the pads off, then the calipers - find something to support the calipers once they come off - then the rotor should sort of slide off. A little persuation might be required, but they do slide off.

Becareful with the torque when you tighten the caliper bolts on the reinstall. Use about 80+/-7 lbft

If you prefer, you could take the brake line off also, but that's messy. The banjo bolt there should be 22+/-4ftlb.

no need to pull the pads.

Jack the car up, remove the wheels. Undo the 2 bolts holding the caliper on, slide out, pull off, replace.

On the rears, make sure you release the parking brake, makes it a wee bit easier
