Hey guys I have tried looking for anything like this but didnt see any threads bout it. I am about to replace my brakes and rotors and I cant recall if there is anything special thats bolted to them or thats gonna make this not do able. Any tips and advice on what to watch out for would be appricated. I know some have talked bout some sensor ring or if the brakes gotta be disconnected and rebled etc etc . Thanks

:_wrench:
The hard part is knowing the search function...:smilewink
As you can see in the second result, I used "Canadian tiddly winks" as my search criteria...:_thinking
I remembered making that comment, & knew the search would pick it up in the text.
Don't ask...:mbrasd:.:laughing:

Its all very straight forward. The tone rings will just get moved over to the new rotors.

Anything Extra I need to do like repack bearings and what not debating to take it to the shop for 200 and let them put it all on. Shes been sitting for a while and it looks pretty rusty behind them all so im sure all those bolts and **** is gonna be a huge PITA.

Your bearings will get repacked by default while replacing rotors. There's a writeup in the Download section that'll tell you all you need to know.
I don't think that you'll have to disconnect the calipers from the brake line to replace the rotors. But if you decide to, that would be opportune time to replace the brake lines with Stainless Steel.
Lemme know if you strip out the heads on those little screws on the hub nut retainer. I've got some allen head replacements I'd be happy to send your way.

Edit:
Actually the article is in the How2 section but it's not in the right place (not under brakes ... it's under drivetrain).

If you repack the bearings, you should get new bearing seals. You will find the info with part numbers here:
