This is on a bigger truck but its the same procedure for changing your brakes if you dont have a piston tool you can use a c-clamp with an old pad to depress piston (s)back or most auto stores will let you borrow tools

I just replaced front brake pads myself. 65K Miles. Rotors were fine. Now that everything is back together the Acadia bounces down the road at any speed. What did I do wrong?

bounces or wiggles ?? as if it wiggles then you've missed a warped rotor by not changing em ,(there can be more wrong with rotors than just physical wear ) this will make your front wheel bearings go bad early if you allow them to wiggle this way BTW if you change rotors its a good idea to at least regrease bearings if not replace em , and allways get new grease seals don't try to reuse em

Gmc envoy 04 has dragging noise coming from rear when brakes are applied

very likely an indication that your brake pads are completely worn out and you are damaging your brake rotor with every pedal push. Get to a brake mechanic immediately.

Are the front and rear brake pads the same on a 2009 youkon 2-wd

I guess you never work on any vehicles,
or use the internet parts sites at all

The front & rear rotor size,calipers size,pad size,etc
is never the same on any vehicle

Need to replace brakes on 2000 GMC Safari. does it have disc brakes all around or drum rakse in rear?

Disc brakes in the front and drum brakes in the rear. Make sure that you repack the front bearing's with wheel grease before finishing the job.If the front rotors and or the rear drums have a rough brake pad surface,get them resurfaced before installing new brake pads or brake shoes in the rear. you can go online or your public library for complete instructions on how to replace the brakes on that vehicle.

Does the 2003 gmc yukon have rear rotors? and do the brakes need to be changed if the rotors need to be machined?

Yes, it has rear Disc Brakes, I would suggest to change the rear pads since they have to remove the rear Brake Calipers to remove the rotors and it wouldn't take much more time or labor to replace the pads at that point. That way when your rear rotors are re-installed and your new brake pads are installed your rear brakes should give you longer service life and better stopping power.

Rear brake pads wear out every 30000 miles on 2002 3/4 tod hd , rotors are pitted bad

That's to be expected and is completely normal.

Rear brake shoes as fitted to drum brakes can typically last up to 60k miles with periodic adjustments, but you have rear disc brakes and the shoes will typically last half of that.

Also, modern brake pads no longer contain asbestos and are now made using harder metallic compounds; the direct result is that brake discs (US=rotors) are also considered to be consumable items as they are worn down by the harder pads. It's not unusual to have to replace front discs every other pad change and rear ones with every pad change; in both cases the mileage will typically be around 30k miles on most models.
