How Do I Replace The Rotors On A 1990 Honda Accord...Plz Give Me Details ...Help Is Appreciated....

 

I don't think you can as an at home DIY. I believe the rotors are pressed on the hub, a dealer or qualified 3rd party shop will need to do the rotors for you.

 

Are they really? I thought it is just a matter of taking old once off and putting new once on. How are they connected to the hub other than the bolts?

 

98+ Accords are rotor hat over hub design, if you left off the lock screw the wheel would hold the unit on the car anyhow, older Accord's have the rotor press fit onto the hub.

I know the 94-97 Accord hub is a press fit type, I'm assuming the 90-93 is also...

 

well its a 90 accord lx... i need details cuz money is a big issue for me right now..

 

try going to a local auto store and look for a chiltons repair manual. it will have detailed information (with pictures) on how to do this job or anything else.

Please don't get this post the wrong way, I honestly don't know how it is done, and the first thing that I always do is try to find that repair manual. Unfortunately some cars don't have one (at least don't have them published), but I had one for my 89 civic, so i would assume and 90 accord will have one as well... they shouldn't cost more than $20
Another way to get your hands on the book is going to the public library or trying to find a softcopy (PDF) on edonkey or something.

Good luck!

Thanks Much Appreciated...

 

you have to take the axle nut out take the 4 bolts off in back of the knuckle and beat the hub off it's not recommended to DIY because if you don't know what your doing you can screw it up big time and be without a car. I recommend taking it to the pros. or pulling the while spindle off and having a machine shop press them out. we use a special in car press to take them out. if money is a issue just replace the pads and deal with warpped rotors until you can fix it.

 

Have the pro's do it. I'm a DIY'er as a lot of people here are, but with the 90-93 Accords, the rotors need to be done by a shop. I have a 93 and thought I'd give it the college try. No Dice. I've done a good amount of auto repair but left this one up to the shop.

 

the 90-97 are a pain to do I ended up getting rid of the whole setup and went 5 lug but they do have a 4 lug rotor over hub conversion using 98-99 2.3 CL front hubs & rotors .
