Re: Shocks and Rotor installation

Rotors can be a pain to get off if they are stubborn but the install is not complicated...liquid wrench owns....no idea about suspension.

Re: Shocks and Rotor installation

Re: Shocks and Rotor installation

as for the rotors go you have to take the brake assembly off....if you take the tire off and look behind the brake assembly there are 2 bolts that you have to take all the way out...now in order to do this without bleeding the brakes just open up your brake fluid reserve and then go back to the assembly and take a healthy screw driver and pry it between the back of the brake pad nd he cylinoid..by doing this it will allow you to remove the brakes so u can pull the whole thing off....after that comes off then our rotor will slide right off....well usuallyby doing the screw driver thing that just saves ya from having to bleed the lines and it turns a 2 man job into 1...and as far as the suspension...you have to look at everything thats connected to the strut.....let ya know now the control arm is a bitch to get back on....
