Lexus LS430 Rear Brake Replacement (rotors and pads)

A walkthrough of rear brake component replacement on a Lexus LS430. This was completed on a 2005 but all years should be similar. I went with Brembo Rotors and Akebono pads because they were readily available. If I was not in a time crunch I would have went with OEM Toyota/Lexus rotors and the Akebono pads. Make sure you replace the caliper bolts. They are one time use. A few parts numbers will be linked below.
