They forgot to gease the inside of the bushings(Pins) with high temp. lubricate. Make sure you buy enough, one tube is good for just two wheels. A little lube on the anti rattle clips (they did not mention them) too.
Also measure the thickness of your rotor. Most may cast the thickness on the rotor, if not look up in manual.
I have Jeep Cherokee 2005. I tried to change REAR pads and rotor myself and couldn't remove the caliper mounting with my hands. Do I need to use a pry bar?
Shouldnt you loosen up brake bleeder screw while pushing piston in? Damages seals and allows nasty fluis back into brake line. Just bleed the whole system put couple quarts new fluid in system. The junk that came out looked like clear plastic or something. Lots of way's to do brake job only one right way.
@kiasoul10 I have a 2007 liberty. The rear brakes were just as easy as the front. The only trick was angling the new pads correctly to get them to go on. I had to set the bottom hook on first, then pop the top hook down. Other than monkeying with that little detail, the job is pretty much like he showed here.

@adelbergandrey they haven't made a Cherokee since 2001. I know, the factory is 10 minutes from my house.
