Guest Pegasus76 Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 Ok guys, I have a 280Z and whenever I would brake it would pull to the left and was making some weird metal sound so I checked it out and it turns out my damn rotor came off! I am just going to replace it with the stock rotor but I don't exactly know how...Can anyone tell me? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Pegasus76 Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 It was the passenger side front Disc rotor Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tim240z Posted October 14, 2002 Share Posted October 14, 2002 OK, first of all, make sure that you replace both sides. Always do brake work in pairs (both sides). 1. Take off the front wheels and the calipers. (hook the calipers aside with some wire so that they are not stressing the brake lines) 2. pop off the dust cap for the wheel bearings 3. take out the split pin that holds the wheel bearing nuts on 4. loosen off the wheel bearing nut and pull off the hubs. 5. loosen the 4 bolts on the back side of the hub that holds the disk on. 6. replace the disk and reverse the above steps. *tip*: When retightening the wheel bearing nuts, do it slowly until there is no more 'play' in the bearings (check by holding the disk at 12 and 6 o'clock and rocking back and forth). Don't overtighten. Hope this helps. Tim Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
