its very easy. go get a haynes manuel, that will help. Just pull off the wheel, take the 2 bolts out of the caliper, pop it off, set it aside. Pull the cotter nut off, then pull the rotor off. Reinstall is reverse of removal.

You are also going to want to clean and lube the slide pins and both surfaces where the caliper contacts the spindles. I agree, get a Haynes manual. You'll want to clean all the bolts and torque them to spec and the manual will help with those specs.
