I bought my X with 37K miles on it, the dealer put on new front brakes but said the rear had several thousand miles to go. So I'm looking at replacing the rear rotors and pads with powerslot and hawks (respectively). These will fit the awd right?

I'm good with my hands but have never done a brake job, is this something I should attempt? Could you guys help me out with a step by step (any special tools?).

Thanks
Jay

I need to replace a warpped rear rotor on my 00 X.

Exactly how do you back off the parking brake so you can remove the rear rotors?

Thanks, Bill
