Anybody have pics of replacing front rotors?

I need to work on my wives car this weekend and I need to replace her rotors and pad in the front of her 98 nissan 200sx. I'm fairly sure of what to do but just thought that I might check and see if anybody has pics. Thanks

would you just use a jack, jack up a side, replace then do the other side? What about for muffler repair jack up the rear both sides at the same time?

I'd just jack up one side at a time for that.

What do you need to do as far as "muffler repair"? when I changed my catback out, I had it up on 4 jackstands and was on a creeper.

the sentra 96 gxe is my first car. It is out of shape because the previous owner left it under a pine tree. I had needed to replace the exhaust system so i bought one online and since i tried to sneak under the car to no avail, i brought it to a dealer to replace the front pads + exhaust system.

I will need to do plenty of work in the future on this car, so wondering how other people get it down.

If any one have tip on rust? my car as far as i can tell is rusting on the middle frame, the part can be seen if you opened the driver door and the one behind it, you can see the beam and at the bottom where it joins the lower frame, there seem to be a hole just rusting, i could pick chips, i am afraid one day while driving it might buckle and rip into 2 pieces.
