Great video. I have a service manual, but it really helped to see you do it. Things to note: On my 2000 model, the puller bolts were M8s - this might differ from model to model. Make sure the hand brake is off, AND back off the handbrake adjusters (turn disc until hole at the bottom lines up with the adjuster). Or, at the very least stop whatever you are doing if there is strong resistance to the rotor coming off -- the handbrake shoes might still be holding on. And you might dislodge them. Then, like me, spend an hour trying to reinstate the handbrake shoes (fiddly job). Excellent video!
I'm loathe to criticise someone who has gone to the effort to make such a helpful video, but I've got a headache from the music. You don't need accompaniment
Saved me from doing one cheers olmate great effort champ

Andrew Webber thanks mate glad it helped, also some good points you made there!
Thanks for the video... Helped heaps. Hadn't seen rear disc setup before as I used to have a 4runner (Drum). Referred to your vid for help! Thanks!
Great video. Thanks. Not sure the distracting music is an asset. I just want to hear the narration.
Cheers mate
You should remove rust from the hub surface before installing the rotor, and clean the hand brake pads...
Thanks
Great vid! Will the Tundra front brake upgrade work on the rears of the Prado?
Wayne, this is a great Video, have you done one to replace a rear wheel stud.
Can you do a rear wheel bearing replacement for a prado ?
Are these the same as front rotors?
