I'm in need of some direction on this task, Im going to replace the rear disc brakes on a 94 gt.
I ordered the following items. Bacially new rear disc brakes
2 Brembo Replacement Rotors 20.00
Satisfied Pro Oem Pads rear 29.00
Pretty good deal on replacement setup. I do only low speed low mile city driving.

The question that I have is what tools will I need to get the job done.

Also how do I get the old rotor off, it looks like the rotor is just sitting on the lug bolts.

If you can leave me a detailed description

Thanks inadvance

jack rear up, take off tire, use 10mm to take off bottom caliper bolt, slide caliper off, remove pads.
use 14mm socket to get to the caliper backing off, one on the bottom, one on top. slide rotor off. put new rotor on, spray with some de-queel, reverse process, add anti-squeel goop to back of pads, slide in, push caliper (round part) in to give pads and rotor room, tighten caliper bolt, put wheel back on. press brakes a few times.

the toughest part is the top 14mm bolt. its hard to get to, an extension might help, just dont strip it!

Thanks alot for the tip I was a little confused when I took off the wheel last week I just did not know how to get the rotor off ... Thanks a million

I did not post were i got the parts from. the rotors are on clearance at tirerack.com
so if you need them I would order some 20 is the cheapest that I have found them...


Thanks again for the reply
