most rotors have a threaded hole so that you can screw in a bolt to back the rotor off of the hub. there may also be a small emergency brake set up inside the inner hub portion of the rotor. if someone has driven with the e-brake on, there may be the same type of lip you would encounter on drum brakes. hope this helps.

How do you replace rotors on 2004 Monte Carlo?

Remove tire Remove the two bolts holding on the callepers and lift the callepers off. The Rotor should pull off they may be seased give them a smack with a deadblow and they should loosen enough to slide off. Install the new rotor. The calliper will need to be reset by removing the break pad and pressing the cylinder in with a calliper tool or a C clamp. (take care to depress the cylinder evenly) Replace the break pad or put the old one back on. (you'll probably need to replace the break pad if your rotor needs replaced.) Put the calliper back onto the rotor and bolt it back on Place the wheel back on.


How do you remove the rear rotors on a 2003 ford explorer?

Once you remove the break system and the caliber your rotor will be exposed, check the back to make sure their are no more lines in or around your rotor and get a hammer and block of wood(so you don't dammage or chip your rotor) or a rubber malet if available. Tap all the way around your rotor, beating to the inside like your trying to put it back on. This should loosen the dust and rust and allow you to take it off. If not tap it from the back all the way around attempting to drive it off the studs.


How do you remove and replace the front and back rotors on a 1996 Chrysler Sebring Coupe?

Remove the calipers on the front ones and they should slide right out. On the back after you remove the caliper , you need a screw that fits the 2 holes by the lug nuts and screw it in until the rotor pops then just slide it out. keep your parking brake off. The rear one is also the parking brake drum. If your rotor is rusted to the wheel bearing, which it probably will be, use a hammer on it to attempt to break loose the rust and release the rotor.

Rotor removal on 82 Camero?

Remove the wheel. Unbolt and set aside the brake caliper. Remove the dust cap at the center of the rotor. Remove the cotter pin, then unscrew the wheel bearing nut. Wiggle the rotor a bit, then remove the outer seal (washer) and outer wheel bearing. Put the nut back on a few turns Grasp the rotor very gently and slide the rotor off at high speed allowing it to drop by force of gravity. The inner bearing should snag on the nut keeping the inner bearing and race on the spindle as the rotor comes off. Remove the nut. Do not forget to clean and repack your wheel bearings before you put the rotor back on.

How do you change front rotors on 1997 Fl50 2wd?

After removing the tire and brake caliper, you need to take off the dust cap, remove the pin holding the nut and nut lock on, the nut lock and the nut. Then pull the rotor out and push it back in so you are able to get to and remove the outer bearing. Then just pull out the rotor. You will need to tap out the inner bearing and seal from the rotor and repack them or replace them with new ones. Once you have the rotor out, you will need new bearings and a seal for the new rotors. You will need to pack the bearings with high temp. grease and put them back in the reverse order you took them out. Once you have the inside bearing and seal in the rotor, put the rotor back on and then put in the outer bearing. Screw the nut back on by hand DO NOT USE ANY WRENCH OR TOOLS TO DO THIS! While screwing the nut back rotate the roter counter clock wise to remove any excess grease from the bearings. Once the nut is hand tight against the rotor, replace the nut lock, pin and dust cap. Now all you have to do is put the break caliper and tire back on and off you go.

1st remove the tire, than remove the brake caliper there are two bolts that are in the back side of the caliper slide the caliper unit off the rotor. on the front of the rotor there is a Phillips set screw next to one of the lug nuts remove it than tap the rotor. You may need to spray some lubricant to loosen any rust or build up. Than replace.
