How to rear replace brake pads and rotor

Brakes problem
1996 Ford Explorer 6 cyl Two Wheel Drive Automatic 178000 miles

Hello:

can someone share with me how difficult it is to replace the rear brake pads and rotors. I've seen other sites and it doens't seem too difficult, but I get confilcting info, especially when it comes to using a c-clamp to drepress the calipers. If some one can give me step by step (with pictures would be awesome) that would greatly be appreciated. I'm not a pro, but I have replaced parts such as oxygen sensors, door locks, and alternators

Pictures are here, this is for calipers with parking brake cbles, if you have no cables attached, it's even easier!
