1) Jack up front end and remove the wheels.
2) Remove caliper with allen wrench and remove old pads by pulling them out.
3) Remove retaining clips from wheel lugs - pliers work great!
4) Pull rotor off
5) Put new rotor on, place new pads in caliper, bolt caliper on, bolt wheel
on, lower vehicle.
 
I did both sides on my truck in less than 1 hour.
