Welcome to Yotatech!

Rear discs swaps are pretty common. There are quite a few threads on this topic and several vendor kits available if you will do some simple searching for "rear disc swap"

98 Taco front discs
98 Taco front rotors
98 Taco Harware and hoses

#1 Do I need to remove the axles to install the rotors?
#2 Is this all I need beside the brackets?
#3 Can some one please give me a step by instructions
