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

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

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.

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.
