I got around to installing the rotors and pads this afternoon. It wasn't a huge ordeal, just a bit painful with one bolt that holds the calipers being unhelpful. Extra helping of WD40 and a bit of extra persuasion had the offender out.
Considering this was the first time that I have changed rotors on a car, I was surprised how easy a job it was. Not worth the $200 I was quoted to have it done for me. Now it's a case of saving for the rear rotors and pads then I can change them over and flush out the old fluid.
Also got a chance to clean the MAFsensor yesterday after borrowing the cleaning spray from Iantz. Don't think it was too gunked up as it didn't take much cleaner to have it looking better.04 GXL - Red Centa dual battery, Alloy B/bar, BFG AT's, Rhino Rack commercial bars x 3, GME TX3540, TJM roof cage, Outback Ideas recovery points, LHS rear drawer, 2" Dobinsons/Bilstein lift, ARB CKMA12 air compressor, CoilRite airbags, ARB 2.5m awning, MCC Dual Wheel Carrier, Eagle Eye headlights with 55w hid lo beam.Comment

Yeah, really simple.
-wheel off (pretty obvious,Lol)
-Spray liberal amounts of WD40 on 2 bolts at the back of the calipers
-Remove split pins from brake pad locating rod
-Slide rods out as well as spring loaded wire on bottom rod (remember path of wire)
-Remove old brake pads. At this point I loosened the cap on the brake reserviour to release pressure on the pistons.
-prise back front and rear brake pistons to make sliding in new pads easier
-remove bolts from calipers and move away from rotor. I then put them on a stand so there was no bending of the brake lines
-slide old rotor off and new rotor on
-reinstall caliper and screw bolts back in
-insert new pads making sure to use correct pads in their right position (there will be a description on the back of the pads to indicate position)
-once lined up, the rods go back in with the spring loaded wire on the bottom rod
-split pins go back in
-wheel on and then brake fluid cap replaced
-jump in the car and pump the brake pedal to bring the pressure back up then take for a test drive

Very happy, picked up a rear bar on the weekend from a fellow PP'er. Just a little bit of a touch up required before fitting.
It's a MCC number with Hayman Reece tow hitch.
