    Good luck man. Way to complicated for me.

    The write up looks pretty good and very precise though.

    Take off the brake caliper, and the rotors will pop off.

    not trying to be a dick but u might be over your head, saying that to get the caliper off... there should be 2 bolts that face towards the truck that you will loosen and pull out and that will allow the caliper to slide off

    Good Luck

    Your 2 hands are the tool. If they are stuck on, you can hit the rotor with a rubber mallet to help loosen it.

    A heavy rubber mallet. Not sure if Toyota uses them, but some have a flat head screw that needs to be removed first.
