i need to replace my brake rotors. how do i get them off? any special tool required? and do i need to get past the spindle nut? ive heard these rotors should just slide off. but i dont want to get all the way into it and find that i need a puller or something. thanks guys. any help is appreciated.

did this yesterday. just need that 54mm socket. my buddy had one so I got lucky. NOthing special after that. remember that there is a lockplate in there with ears that bend over the nut. bend those back to be able to get the socket on. Sometimes they are hard to see with all the grease in there.

 

x2, all you really need is a 54mm socket. IF you have done wheelbearings before it will be a snap..
