front hub removaltimguyli 04-04-2005, 07:31 PM Im trying to replace the front rotors on my 93, but the hub wont budge. I put a puller on it, the spindle backed off... but the darn thing wont come off! Anyone know what im missing here? Thanks Ryan066 04-04-2005, 07:56 PM shouldn't the rotors just pull right off? if not spray some penetrating lube on it and spack it with a huge hammer (NOT on the studs tho) face of the rotor... should just come right off. edit.. ahh I see how it works... u need a bigger slide hammer by the sounds of it Ryan066 04-04-2005, 08:00 PM Remove the 2 bolts holding the caliper mounting bracket to the steering knuckle. These bolts will be tight. Remove the 4 lug nuts holding the rotor. Remove the bracket from the knuckle. Before removing the rotor, make a mark on the rotor indexing one wheel stud to one hole in the rotor. This assures the rotor will be re-installed in its original position, serving to eliminate minor vibrations in the brake system. geozukigti 04-04-2005, 08:27 PM There's 2 kinds of rotors on the metros. One you need to pull the hub with a slide hammer. The other has 2 philips screws holding the rotor to the hub. Pics would help. vBulletin®, Copyright ©2009, Jelsoft Enterprises Ltd.
