I was planning on replacing a stripped rear wheel stud on my 1997 Celica GT Non-ABS. I just can't figure how to remove the rotor? I remember it's something about sticking something through the hole on the face of the rotor. I have replaced a wheel stud on my front drivers side before. Just never worked on the rear rotors before. Anyone think they can help me out on how to remove the rear rotor?

You thread a bolt into the holes on the face. Tightening the bolt pushes the rotor off.

I don't get it? Thread a bolt into the big hole right? But I don't know which position should the rotor be in?

Make sure you don't have the brakes or emergency brake on because you won't be able to get it off. And the same as the front, the caliper and bracket have to come off.


Yea I did all that until I got to the hub and noticed it didn't fall right off like the front ones do. -_-'
