Question Brake removal

does anyone know how to take off the front brakes on a 94 P/U with a auto disconnecting differential?
i cant seem to figure it out.
my friend had one with manual hubs and his just pulls off but mine wont.
and pics would be great help too.

Are you trying to remove the rotors or the pads?

This question is a little vague.

Assuming you are talking rotors, they are captured meaning you have to remove the wheel bearings and hub before you can remove the rotor.

Please do us and yourself a favor, go read a manual with pictures, preferably the FSM and get someone wiser than yourself to help/show you how to change brakes.

It can be done, just follow Wabbits advise on using the FSM. Involves disassembling the whole hub assembly. Not hard after the first time.
