How do I remove this rotor senpai?
Pop off that center cap first. Then remove a cotter pin and castle bot (if uses those) and the bearings will come out as yu pull off the rotor.
id make midas or some place do it
you have to pull the hub for that one
this is not really dyi

Go dyi in a fire
>>13810541
Am I fucked, I'm fucked aren't I?
>>13810649
If you have the tools you will be fine, it will just be harder and take longer.

How about Audi ufo brakes. Such a pain.
>>13810649
No, niggas are just babies around here. Go get a factory service manual for your vehicle.
>>13810481
Can we talk about the rotor having massive fucking cracks in it
>>13810703
WHAT THE FUCK GERMANY
>>13810730
Why do you think he wants to remove it, retard?
>>13810738
Haha they really aren't that bad. They just look fucking weird.
>that dangling brake.
Fucking ziptie it to something you hack, come on.
>>13810742
But HOW does that happen?
>>13810751
It looks like it's sitting on the ground, not dangling. Calm down, please.
>>13810765
It looks like it's pulling on the brake line
any tension at all on the line is bad so hang it with some string or wire bitch
>>13810558
Thats a ACVW rear end . . . WTF?
>>13810481
duelly?
kek, have fun dismantling your axle m8.
>>13811340
no its not. those had torsion bars you can clearly see a coil spring m8
god some people are STUPID
>>13812515
whats that a maxima?
>>13810763
Heating/cooling stress, bad metal, etc. Same as how a cheap stovepot will crack after enough use. It's rare, but it does happen.
>>13812526
OP here, I suspect it was from regularly driving a 5 ton vehicle over I-70 with steep grades the whole way.
>>13813449
Yup that would put some heat in them.
I assume you eventually got the dust cap off, pulled the hub, swapped the rotor?

The fuck you doin' Eric?

>hating torx
Just go buy a set of torx bits. I used to hate them too until I realized they don't strip anywhere near as often
>>13812499
fucking boyd is that you
you goof
>>13810683
>>13810703
Why.
Why the fuck.
Would they do this.

All Maximas have 5 lugs. Maybe a Sentra.

>thinking that thing looks better
>>13814819
it would look fucking sick if they painted it, otherwise it just kind of blends in
>>13810489
Removing a hub isn't DIY? Are you shitting me?
What are you even doing on this board?
>>13810489
This is just good bait, right?
>>13813460
Nah, one piston in the other side was completely fucked, so I ordered lines, pistons and rotors all around then limped the RV back to its storage spot. I'm debating on getting new calipers or not.
>>13813460
>Yup that would put some heat in them.
Shouldn't be enough to do that. These are heavy iron. Probably got them extremely hot and then got some really cold water on them.
Protip: Flip the hub over and place the wheel studs back into the wheel you took off. Kneel on the tire to prevent it from rotating and you can unbolt the rotor from the hub easily.

I tried that two days ago on a rwd S10, just trying to get the wheel bearing off. The puller shattered. The S10 owner ended up paying a shop to torch the bearing off. I felt bad I couldn't get the bearing off the truck, but the mechanic looked rather shocked that the brand new puller broke.
>>13818217
I forgot to add, it was a front wheel bearing.
>>13812484
See the steering linkage? Not a duel wheel. It does have duels in the back.

This, i did my fronts this weekend, and calipers and balljoints.
