I was going to suggest going to a buddy's house. Good time to BS and hang while get a hand to help.

I say go buy the stuff (jack, jack stand, pads, mechanic hand cleaner, a big + looking thing for removing nuts, maybe anti squeak lube). You can find those smaller jack with 2 stands in a bundle deal at Sears or any part store for decent price. They go on sale every once in a while.

like this: http://www.homedepot.com/p/Husky-3-T...368321&cj=true

-Break the nuts loose with the OEM tire iron in the truck (they fit better so you don't round anything)
A simple break down:

-Chock back tire (s) and lift up car (jack at appropriate spots)

-use the + thing to remove nuts, remove rim, (you might have to give them a good kick to break them loose if they been on for a while).

-Take off caliper, take off pads, take off rotors,

-Take rotors to auto to resurface, (like $10 each or something.. it's been a while)

-Put new pads into calipers, then put everything back together.
