pulling rotors

[Bluhaven]

How does the rotor come off the hub. Got the hub pulled but does the rotor come off the hub. I forgot to say that it is on a 4x4.

You need to drive out the studs with a brass drift ... or press them out ... .

I support the rotor between two 2x4s and hit the studs with a 12 lb sledge with an aluminum plate in-between to protect the threads, one whack on each stud is all it takes.



When reseating the studs in your new rotor don't do it with the wheel installed, you can damage it. Best to use a bunch of washers and a lug nut turned upside down to suck 'em in. This is where an impact wrench pays for itself rapidly.

Thanks for all the information, couldn't have done it without the help from everyone. Ended up having a shop press them off and it on. Thanks again. Oo.
