I am going to start my brake job. I have all of the parts. One question before I get started I heard that I might need a hydrolic tool of somesorts to take the rotors off my car Is this the case or not???? please if anyone knows let me know back asap
thanks

 

No you don't. You do have to flip the caliper upwards in order to take the rotor out. The rotor is held in by two screws, since the caliper helps in keeping it in place.

 

DO NOT STRIP THOSE TWO SCREWS!

use an impact driver to get them loose...

 

:werd: i couldnt do it till i used the impact driver

 

if all else fails, such as breaking off your bits in a driver, you can walk the bolts out with a center punch, usually if you smack the head of the screws( not in the philips indention) it will free them up and you can twist them out, if not you can walk them around by angleing the punch a little so your driving down on the left side of the head and keep working it around until it is free enough to turn with a screwdriver.

 

nice tip! Will keep that in mind...
