97 Rear Brakes
Hi Guys and Gals,
I'm starting to replace my rear pads and rotors on a '97 Discovery. I've done the front pads and rotors before. I have a complete rotor/pad/accessory parts kit from Atlantic-British. Two questions basically.
1. Is there a quick place to goon the web for instructions on how to do this? I know I should have a service manual but I'm broke.
2. I have a caliper off and undid the axle hub cover(?) bolts to gain access to remove the rotor. When I started to remove it, an axle shaft(?) comes out with it and fluid starts pouring all over the ground.Will I have any problems reinserting the shaft and where/what kind of fluid do I put back in when finished?
Thanks.

RE: 97 Rear Brakes
you have to pull the axle out to get the rotor off. You should have drained the rear end first. You can get a RAVE cd from rover-renovations.com for free. It might take a week or so to get to you.
put 80 / 90W oil back in the rear end wher you get it back together. The shaft should go back in just fine.
