Default 2007 Chevy 4x4 Brake rotor

What all is involved to change rotor. It looks to me that the spindle needs to be pulled. Why did they Bolt it behind instead of the front.

You really need a manual for that. Twenty bucks could save you alot. Not that it's that indepth, but there are some things you need to know.

I don't believe the 4x4 is any different then the 2wd, there is a torx screw that holds the rotor on, it is in the front. No need to removed the spindle nut...

Thats the only difference. That is also a don't do as you can pull the cv joint out. I am just a proponent of having a csm or haynes manual for every car you work on.
