I want to change the rotors in my car.
Is this something easy that I ca do myself? Or is something a little complicated that I need to take it to a shop. Is just that I like doing everything myself. Does anybody know where the sticky or message about changing the rotors is? Is there a sticky about this? Any help thank you guys... -------------------- Luis

Although there is info in that thread about rotor removal, it really dosent go that in depth. Not that it needs to either. Removal of a rotor is a simple process. When I did mine, i took off the wheel (of course its jacked up as well), then took out the caliper bolts, and hung the caliper out of the way (as to not put stress on any of the lines. For me the rotor came off with little problems. But if it does give you an issue, there should be two threaded holes on the rotor, get a bolt that fits it (cant recall as of now though) and thread those in there. Alternating back and forth between the bolts "tighten" them in there and use that to push the rotor out. And when you do the rears make sure the parking brake is off! Also if your doing the rotors might as well do the pads!
