Archived Front rotor replacement

[parafinsrl]

I need a quick answer as the tow truck is on its way. I have a 3500 dually and need to know how to take off the front rotor to replace it. My caliper ceased this morning and if I can have it towed home it will save me bucks. Do I have to pull the hub to get the rotor off or is it just the large nuts after the lug nuts to remove it. The hub was a nightmare for the shop last year to replace the universals. We anticeased it but I am sure it will be the same again. If its just nuts and bolts I know I can do it myself.

Just the wheel adaptor and the caliper adaptor have to come off the hub is behind the rotor on an 04

Thank You. The front is very difficult to tear apart. The tolerances are so close so time and oxidation take their toll.

No problem I do this stuff everyday

If you cleaned off the rust and used copper antisieze it will be easy to take apart for a few years.
