1. Take the wheel off
2. Remove the caliper by losening the bolts on top and on the bottom
3. Take off the pads
4. Remove caliper housing or brace whatever it is called
5. The rotor should either pop off or you may need to tap it slightly
6. Put on new rotor
7. Push pack caliper piston, cus you should replace the pads as well
8. Replace caliper housing
9. Replace pads
10. Replace Caliper
11. Replace Wheel, don't forget to tighten lugs. I drove to MD from VA with loose lugs. I made it back without the wheel falling off but I had 2 lugs rolling around behind the wheel covers. Not a good idea to leave em loose.
I hope this helps.
