Remove the center cap, either allen wrench or torque screws, remove snap ring on edge of hub, remove locking gears, remove inner snap ring, remove spacer washers, then you need a special socket to remove the large nut inside, depending if its manuel or auto locking hubs, the auto has a half moon shape snap ring locking the nut that holds the bearingsDoes anyone know how to change the rotor on a 92 f150 4 wheel drive? i cannot get the hub off?
no i don't

How do you change out a rotor on a 1980 Jaguar XJ6?
I have a 1980 XJ6 Jaguar that the rotor is rotten (from time is suppose) how do I change it out? Would I have to drop the axle? Serious answers pleaseHow do you change out a rotor on a 1980 Jaguar XJ6?
It's not out of the question. If they are in-board and rusted to oblivion, then it will be an easier job to just take out the whole rear-end. Then you can work on it at a work bench. You have to disconnect the axles anyway, it's only a few more bolts and a heavy chunk. It will still not be close to an easy job though. I've seen the inboard rotor bolts break more, than come out in one piece. Soak it with penetrating oil and pray.How do you change out a rotor on a 1980 Jaguar XJ6?
You need to be more specific about your problem. %26quot;Rotor%26quot; can mean a lot of different things. Where is it on your car? In the distributor, brakes, drive shaft, transmission, alternator, starter motor, fuel pump, oil pump, power steering, torque converter, etc.How do you change out a rotor on a 1980 Jaguar XJ6?
I assume we're talking about the rear inboard brakes. The rotors can in theory be serviced in place. You would need to unbolt the half shaft, and remove rotor and caliper together. You will probably need to undo the exhaust to get proper access. When you replace them, try to find Brembo rotors, which have extra holes in the hub which allow you to unbolt the differential stub axle retainer. This allows you to pull the rotors with the stub axle. It might sound harder, but it's easier to get the rotor out and in when everything is mobile.
My feeling is that the most satisfying way to do this is to pull the whole rear axle, and use the opportunity to refresh the control arm bearings, shocks, half shaft joints, as well as the brakes.New seals for the diff, and hub bearings if you're ambitions. It's a fairly simple thing to do, although you need a transmission jack to deal with the weight (about 300+ lbs). The parts are cheap. Undo the exhaust, hand brake cable, brake hose, and trailing arms. Slide your jack underneath and take the weight off the mounts. Then unbolt them. You'll probably have to replace the trailing arm bushings, as they are usually impossible to budge (without damage) after many years of service.
Axle removal should be done with a stout set of jackstands supporting the rear of the body, and the front wheels on the floor. Don't ever try to remove the axle on a lift, as the car will become very nose heavy when the axle drops.

How to I change the rotors on a 94 Civic CX?
Is there a way not to remove the caliper but to swing it out of the way? If not. I see two bolts holding the caliper and brake shoe assembly in place are those the ones I need to remove the caliper. I know how to get the rotor off after that
. ThanksHow to I change the rotors on a 94 Civic CX?
To remove the rotor you must remove the caliper. Or at least the bracket holding the caliper.
You can not simply swing the caliper out of the way. You can only do this if you are slapping new pads on, and it's not recommended.
Always get rotors turned when doing a brake job to ensure proper pad to surface contact.How to I change the rotors on a 94 Civic CX?
Yes those two bolts holds it and it has to be remove to change the rotorHow to I change the rotors on a 94 Civic CX?
no you have to take the calipers off then slide off the rotors

How do you change the rotors on a Ford F250?
how do you change the front rotors on a Ford F250
I have removed the brakes, caliper, and locking hub cap. Is there any thing else that needs to be removed or is the rotor just supose to slide off at this point, in which case it does not.How do you change the rotors on a Ford F250?
This sounds like it's a four wheel drive. My Blazer works this way, so yours may be the same. If so, you have to remove the hubs. The rotor is held in place with the wheel studs. They are pressed into the rotor. But there is more to it than this. There is an inner and outer bearing as well as retainers for the outer bearing. There is a specific Way in which to re install everything. Unless you are set up to do everything, you shouldn't attempt it. Go get a manual for your truck and have a look to see if it's something you want to tackle.How do you change the rotors on a Ford F250?

How to change a rear disc brake rotor of my 2003 F-150 2wd?
Do i need to use special tools to pull the rotor from the hub?I was able to change the front rotors .How to change a rear disc brake rotor of my 2003 F-150 2wd?
Nope, simply remove the two 10mm bolts that secure the caliper with the pads to the backing plate, and move out of the way. Once out of the way, knock the rotor off with a hammer. Hope this helps.How to change a rear disc brake rotor of my 2003 F-150 2wd?

You are going to need to back off on the hand brake adjuster when putting it back together.
You will also need to reload (adjust) the hand brake when done.
Do not use force, get the manual, or check out the autozone site as they may have the instructions you need.How to change a rear disc brake rotor of my 2003 F-150 2wd?
will be about the same shouldnt need any more tools

How do you change the rotors on a 1995 jeep cherokee sport?
Im replacing the front rotors on my girlfriends jeep, and iv gotten the calipers off...now shouldnt the rotor slide right off the hub? or do i need to mess with the big bolt in the center of the rotor? You know the one thats got a pin in it?How do you change the rotors on a 1995 jeep cherokee sport?
they should slide right off although there maybe a small star washer on the lug bolt to hold the rotor on,
do not mess with the center boltHow do you change the rotors on a 1995 jeep cherokee sport?
some Jeep Cherokee's have rotors on hubs (removable rotors without moving the hub) But I really think this was an upgrade on the Grand Cherokee not on the Sport model - The hub/rotor assembly may have to be removed as one unit.How do you change the rotors on a 1995 jeep cherokee sport?
Pull the pin out.
Take that big bolt off.
Now pull the rotor off.
On the new rotor, tap the outer race of the inside bearing into the backside.
Pack the bearing and drop into the race.
Tap the seal in.
Slip the rotor over the spindle.
Put in the outer bearing.
Tighten the hub nut firmly.
Back nut off about 1/4 turn.
Line up hole and reinsert pin.
Do other side same way.

2004 Lincoln Navigator: Can't get the RF rotor off to replace it. How do you pull it off???
The caliper is off. I have tried to beat the rotor off with a rubber hammer...no luck. There is a race(bearing) in the center held in by a stud,lock ring %26amp; nut. Will this need to be replaced as well? I have changed rotors before but never incountered this scenario. Do I need a puller, slide hammer? What am I over looking? Need input!! Thanks2004 Lincoln Navigator: Can%26039;t get the RF rotor off to replace it. How do you pull it off???
You DO NOT need to remove the center axle nut on this application. If you do, you risk damage to the hub %26amp; bearing assembly. BIG $$. Simply remove the caliper and caliper bracket. Spray generous amounts of PB blaster or WD-40 to the area around the hub. SMACK the OUTER SIDE of the brake rotor until it breaks free of the hub to remove. The above poster is referring to vehicles that are 2WD. I have never heard of a 2WD Navigator. Hope this helps.2004 Lincoln Navigator: Can%26039;t get the RF rotor off to replace it.

Rotor is made with the bearing assembly, you have to remove the hub to remove the entire assembly2004 Lincoln Navigator: Can%26039;t get the RF rotor off to replace it. How do you pull it off???
Thought they were offered as either 2wd or AWD?
On 2wd I agree w/smacking the rotor.
It's amazing how tough some of them are to break loose.
Sometimes even after a good PB soaking, it's bigger hammer time...2004 Lincoln Navigator: Can%26039;t get the RF rotor off to replace it. How do you pull it off???
they do make 2 wheel drive Navigators they always have you can get them either way. So if I was you before I start beating on the rotor I would find out from a dealer or a brake place like Midas. if nothing is holding it on you may have to beat the hell out of it to get it off just make sure before you start beating on it.2004 Lincoln Navigator: Can%26039;t get the RF rotor off to replace it.

buy a new one and look at how it is held on and go from there.
