Default Replace rear rotors. Any tricks?

Hi, I work on my Julie's 2006 S60R. I want to change all for Rotors.
Do they pull off like most American autos. Any trick with the emergency brake?

Thanks

Good Dad

Yes, similiar to the front (I cant remember if there is an adjustment port for the parking brake to back it off). Get a set of parking brake pads as they are probably delaminated and will fall apart when you remove the rotors. Change your regular pads to and depending on year mileage you might want to cosider the brake hoses as well.

+1 on new parking brake shoes. Also springs if they are rusty.

There should be a 10mm adjuster on the parking brake handle, just need to pull the boot out of the way.
