rear rotor removal

What size sockets are required for the rear rotor removal? Is there a diagram available with bolt sizes?

It depends on whether you have the Brembo brakes or not. If you do have Brembos, you will need a 19mm socket to remove the two bolts that hold the caliper on. Make sure your emergency brake is off also. Chances are you will need an impact gun to get the bolts off. The torque suggestion is around 90 ft-lbs, but I found that they were on with a lot more force; more than the lug nuts. No need to disconnect any brake lines. Be sure to remove your pads first also.

Thanks for the info. I did the swap last weekend. I did this once before but forgot what size the rear bolt was (05 sedan 6mt). I had the socket, but not the wrench. Sears is close and had a sale on metric wrench sets.
