this is probably a dumb question but which bolts do you take off to remove rear calipers? Thanks for any help.

Don't ever feel like it's a dumb question even if it is. If you don't ask you'll never learn. Like the teacher used to say "there are probably 4 or 5 other people wondering the same question".:)

It was so easy when I figured it out I was like duh. One thing though its a pain in the a** to get the rear rotors off. had to use a can of WD40 on each to pry them things off. That was the part that took the longest. Now she brakes smooth as silk.

If you're putting on new rotors, just banging on them with a hammer is a fast way to get them off. Took me about 20 seconds each. And there was plenty of rust......
