Front Disc brake replacement Help

Hey ya'll,

I am having washboard feeling in my brakes and i need to replace the front rotors and pads. I have the tools and everything to do it I just wish i had a better guide of how to do the whole process or something to reference. If any you guys got any tips or instructions that would be awesome. Thanks.

I believe someone a while ago on here actually posted a vid on how to do the brakes on these. Maybe it was just the wheel bearing preload though, can't remember.

may not have to replace rotors, check to see if they are within specs. they may be able to be re surfaced.
