Greetings,
I am preparing to do a front and rear brake job on the vehicle listed above with front and rear disc brakes. Can I please get the procedures, diagrams, exploded views, and torque specs for completing this task?
Thank you

Please start a new thread for the rear brakes, this post will be for the front brakes. We only handle one request at a time.

Start by removing the master brake cylinder dust cap, then use a large standard screwdriver to push the brake pads back, only replace the brake pads/rotor one side at a time.

Here is a video to show you how with toque specs:
