I need "How To" instructions on changing rear brake pads on a 2006 Jeep Commander
Per Chilton Auto repair manual:
Removal & Installation
To install:
WARNING
Support the brake caliper with mechanics wire. Do not let the caliper hang by the brake hose.
what Chilton repair manual?
I can't find any that are Commander specific
06 Jeep Commander XK base
3.7 V6 quadra trak 1 (4x4)
83k
it may be the same as grand cherokee same year.
watch out for CHil-TONS, it mixes years and models.
I have the real FSM for most years older than all mine.
2006 shows.
chapter 5 is it , titled BRAKES
2005 to 10.
1. Raise and support vehicle.
2. Remove rear wheel and tire assembly.
3. Drain small amount of fluid from master cylinder brake reservoir with a clean suction gun.
4. Bottom caliper pistons into the caliper by prying the
caliper over.
5. Remove the caliper slide pins (4).
6.Remove caliper (1) from the anchor.
7. Secure caliper (1) to nearby suspension part with
wire. Do not allow brake hose to support caliper
weight.
8. Remove the inboard & outboard brake pads from
the caliper.
I will gander at jeep.com see the parts page for your car
to see if the same it is.
commander looks the same to me, is not commander just more seats and longer SUV? IDK much about them. 
looking at that same as front really.
use brake grease on the pins 10, the shell on those grease outside of it. the part that slides gets the special Hight temp grease.
remove MC fluid a tad before retracting the caliper pistons.
or it can leak dot4 under hood and eat paint up.
always grease the pins last, on assembly
so the sliders can not jamb up a very dangerous thing to happen.
or get pro to do it right IMHO
a pro does a full inspection
for leaks
for rusty lines and damage to them end to end
warped or cracked (OMG) rotors
bad wheel bearings
bad parking brake parts.
calipers are shot or leaking or seized
caliper sliders rusted and a wreck, buy new ones cheap. #5 to 10 above
and more. Full ABS testing and parts.
as we say , gee it's ONLY BRAKES !

or you will get wrong answer 9/10 times
sorry. cars are complex.
and off topic here brakes.
please do post , !
year ,make ,model and engine there.
the cars glove box users guide covers that.
audio chapter (sounds) and its jacks.
fog lamps ?what aftermarket lamps? or factory?
we can not guess what is there now
nor what is to be put there in details.
some cars have no fog lamps at all.
and adding those takes special fused kit.
not just hacked in,ever or risk a fire.
