ROTORS

REMOVAL:
If equipped with an air bag, disconnect the negative battery cable and properly disable the Supplemental Restraint System (SRS).
Loosen the lug nuts, then raise and safely support the vehicle on jackstands.
Remove the wheels.
Remove the steering knuckle from the vehicle.
Remove the 4 bolts retaining the hub unit to the steering knuckle and remove the hub unit.
Remove the 4 bolts, then separate the hub unit from the brake rotor.

INSTALLATION:
Assemble the disc to the hub unit and tighten the bolts to 40 ft. Lbs. (55 Nm).
When installing the hub to the knuckle, use new self-locking bolts and tighten them to 33 ft. Lbs. (45 Nm).
Install the steering knuckle.
Lower the vehicle and check for proper brake operation.
If equipped, enable the SRS system and connect the negative battery cable.

Wheel studs will need knocked out and new ones pressed back into place. Removal of hub and axle may be necessary if access to rear of studs is not accessible.
