Anyone have any good advice, DIY instructions, details, schematics on doing a possible weekend job on the the brakes/rotor, and wheel bearings on 2000 ES300.

Thank you.

Front or rear? Rear is easy...
If front, more headache.

Front/back brakes/rotors(only if the rotors are bad) & back bearings.

Back bearing is easy.
Once you have the rotor removed, you can stick a socket with extension through "hub / knuckle...whatever you call thing". It is held down by 4 bolts or nuts.

My advice is to make sure you've got brake lube, a wire brush and enough brake cleaner before you start.

Here's how the front brakes are done:


Rear brakes:


And parking brakes, skip to 3:17 where I explain how the bearing would come off:
