Taking the Rotors and Calipers is actually easier than i thought. When i replace my wheel bearing i took them off... Its just two 17mm bolts that attatch the caliper bracket to the hub and the caliper comes right off. then the rotor follows. The assembly comes off complete with the pads still in place, therefore there wassent any need to push the Pot back in, in order to put the brakes back on. Just hang them from your shock while you work and youll be fine. I was actually surprised how easy it was. Soooo maybe that is the easiest way. beacause im sure you could hammer the studs out with everything on but it would be hard to see if your lined up with the opening in the back. Its just too risky and in my opinion its harder.



Good Luck! smile.gif
