New Brake Rotor Set from 1AAuto.com 1aau.to/ia/1APBR01147
This video shows you how to install new, quality TRQ brake pads and rotors on your 1998-2011 Ford Ranger. Brake pads wear out over time, much like tires, and need replacing, on average, every 50,000 miles, with variations depending on driving habits and environment. Brake rotors may also need to be replaced if they are warped or grooved. Often, it’s safer and more cost effective to replace pads and rotors at the same time. Squealing or grinding noises, or wheel vibration are all symptoms of worn brakes.
This repair was done on a 2011 Ford Ranger XLT 2.3L Extended Cab Pickup 4-Door RWD Automatic and the process should be similar on the following vehicles:

1999 Ford Ranger
2000 Ford Ranger

[@tempestfyr]

my 99 ranger doesn't have that setup for disc brakes. I don't have a center nut to remove. Take the caliper housing off and my rotor falls off
