Each brake rotor has the minimum thickness marked on the rotor. Keep in mind also that the comparative thickness of each side of a vented rotor must be considered. Even if the overall thickness is greater than the minimum, each side must be within .040" (1mm) of the other.

SOURCE: 2007 Chevy Suburban rotor removal

this is a problem that happens alot you have to use an impact driver for this and a impact torx bit. the driver is a cylinder shaped tool with a 3/8 drive head. you get the impact torx the the impact driver and a hammer. the tool is inexpensive and will do the trick.

How do you know when to replace the rotors? how much oil do i need to replace the rear oil?

There is a specific thickness a rotor needs to be to function properly. The minimum thickness is usually stamped on the rotor itself, sometimes on the edge and sometimes on the inside. If the rotor is warped,you need to have them "turned" on a brake lathe, or replaced. You will know if they are warped when you apply the brakes at a high speed,and the brake pedal moves up and down. As far as the rear end, or differential oil is concerned, when you remove the cover and re-silicone it, you fill it until it runs out of the filler hole. Check with your owners manual to see what kind of grease it takes,and if it takes an additive in case of a limited slip rear end.
