Re: Brake Rotor Re-surface

Yep, I plan to do it myself, have access to a brake lathe and had done it on other vehicles. Though it looks like not a good idea now.

That kind of brake lathe is call "on vehicle brake lathe". Normally only dealers have it. I checked with couple local garages, they don't have that kind of equipment. The dealer wants $180/rotor just to re-surface. I am not interested in being ripped off by them.

I took the half shaft off, took the 4 bolts attaching the hub bearing to the steering knockle off. Then I got stuck. Can't get the hub off. I need to know if the hub bearing assy is pressed into the knockle, it's not specified in the manual.
