Brake rotor removal

Good morning

You will need a Phillips screw driver for the two screws for the rotor.
You will need a 3/8 ratchet with a 10 mm socket, 13 mm socket, 14 mm socket and 17 mm socket to release all the bolts for the rotor.
You will also need to push back the pads into the caliper so you can release the caliper from the rotor and install the new pads. You can do this with a screw driver.

4. Remove the brake caliper bracket mounting bolts (B), then remove the caliper assembly (C) from the knuckle. To prevent damage to the caliper assembly or brake hose, use a short piece of wire to hang the caliper assembly from the undercarriage. Do not twist the brake hose excessively.

5. Remove the brake disc flat screws (A).

6. Remove the brake disc (B) from the front hub.

NOTE: If the brake disc is stuck to the front hub, thread two 8 x 1.25 mm bolts (C) into the brake disc to push it away from the hub. Turn each bolt 90 degrees to prevent the brake disc from binding.

7. Install the brake disc in the reverse order of removal.

NOTE: Before installing the brake disc, clean the mating surface of the front hub and the inside of the brake disc.

8. Inspect the brake disc runout See: Brake Rotor/Disc > Component Tests and General Diagnostics > Front Brake Disc Inspection.

9. Clean the mating surfaces of the brake disc and the inside of the wheel, then install the front wheel.

You are welcome.
