I've got all the parts to replace the rear rotors on my 2002 AWD minivan but I am a little confused on how to remove the calipers. The front were very easy and obvious, however the rear are not so easy. I removed the 4 bolts that secure the caliper and a single bolt that secures the emergency brake (I think). The entire assembly was loose but it appeared the only way to remove the caliper was to remove the assembly by removing the hub nut. This didn't seem correct so I reinstalled everything as is and am seeking assistance. Please advise for the caliper removal on this vehicle.
Thx,
GV

First it is 2 different things you need to remove 1 the caliper wich is mounted with 2 pins, then if the rotor has never been changed there will be 2 clips holing it to the flange, unscrew or break them off and pull the rotor off.
