I'm looking for a procedure for removing the rear rotors from the 5th gen. Is there anything tricky about this?

I just had rear brakes replaced at a local
indie shop recently.
Unfortunately a few days later the rear pax side was making
A noise. Turns out that the parking brake hardware
was not installed correctly. I remember the tech taking longer
than usual on that particular side.
To take off the rotor the tech had to hammer it on the sides
Just be careful. Working with that parking brake can turn into
a PITA.
 
I know you need to make sure your parking brake is not engaged. 4 runners have drum parking brakes inside the rotors.
 
OK I deserved to get flamed there a bit... With that said, it wasn't exactly front and center. Perhaps the forum moderators could make it a bit easier to find. Don't take this as a complaint and flame me again - return to sentence one...

Thanks nashman69g for putting that reference material together.

Cheers from the Great White North!
