Im a new member so first of all hello to everyone. I am attempting to change my rotors and brake pads and have noticed that changing the rotors on my xterra isn't as easy as the typical vehicle (from what I have read and been told). I got as far as removing the caliper, the brake pads and then the 6 bolts that hold the rotor in place. What next? Any help would be appreciated. Thank you.

Heck if I know , but here are some threads I found in the "backyard mechanic" there may be more search there. Hope this helps

to change the front rotors, you have to take the front hub apart. Might as well regrease your hubs while your at it.

LINK to a how-to and photos of how to repack the bearing. Just have to unbolt the 6 bolts that hold the rotor on after the hub is apart.
