Proton Jumbuck Utility. Does the centre wheel bearing nut need to be removed to change the disc rotors or should they just come away. If it has to be removed are both sides right hand thread.

After removal of the brake caliper mount, the rotors should come off. Give the center of the rotor some banging with a hammer and they should come off.
If they do not, between the lug nuts you should see 2 holes which you can use 2 pieces of m8 bolts to slowly and evenly turn in to dislodge the rotor.
