I need new brakes in the rear and I’m not about to pay $100 for something I know is easy as hell... I change my front brakes in my sleep and I was told that the rear brakes are a little different and I just wanted to know if any of you knew of a tutorial that shows you how to do this…

The rears aren't any harder than the front. Compress, remove, replace, decompress.

just make sure you release the parking brake.

If your car is a six cylinder, you might have rear drum brakes. It will be a little different.

no i have a Z but To be honest I'm doing it on my winter car my little Saturn SL it a 94 and it came with rear disk brakes kind of piss me off because it's a 1.9 lit engine with disk brakes and I had a 94 v6 camaro that had drums!!! I like why would gm put disk brakes on this slow **** and not on my mero???
but i will change the brakes on my z as well over the winter... but i have no idea how to so it and i'm scared i'm going to mess up the parking brake
