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 |

If you can leave me a detailed description Thanks inadvance "Also how do I get the old rotor off, it looks like the rotor is just sitting on the lug bolts". Sometimes rotors can stick to the hubs. If your rotors seem to be stuck and they won't slide off when there are no more fasteners holding them on then use the threaded holes in the rotor to insert the appropriate sized metric bolt to force the rotor from the hub. Use all the threaded holes to separate in a uniform fashion. Mine were really stuck to the rotors when I replaced them last month. Also I recommend using 6 point sockets rather than the 12 point since some of the bolts may require some effort to turn. 12point sockets have the potential to round off the nut making for a real mess. Anti-seize compound is also nice to use on the threads and between the rotor and the hub as well as the outside of the rotor and the aluminum rim to prevent them from sticking next time. Just a very thin coat makes a big difference. Yellow94GT |
