Being the 3Maxman that I am, (87,91 & 96) Looking for some help on pulling rotors to get them turned. Wondering if I needed any "special" tools to get the job done. Younz Guys seem to have the answers when it comes to Max's.

Thanx

I just did my front brake rotors last week. Chris91SE is correct. There are two bolts that hold that caliper onto the torque member. Then there are two more that hold the torque member to the hub. Take all (4) of them off and the rotor should pull off. If not, then thread two bolts into the holes in the center of the rotor. This will break it loose.

Your local Pep Boys should have the tools to turn your rotors/determine if they need to be replaced. Good luck.
