Will you guys give me brief instructions on how to replace the rotors on my 90 Civic DX? You know like unique problems for this car. Such as wheel bearing removal or other extra steps and hints. From previous experience on other cars it's basically pull the wheels, remove calipers or move out of the way. Pull rotor and replace. Or other specifics like special tools needed (like to remove caliper bushings)

 

just remove the wheel, on back side of caliper you will see 2 big bolts (17mm) un bolt them and whole caliper will come off and outta the way, then just (try) and remove the 2 philip screws on the front of the rotor if not drill them out they can be a pita sometimes, and then pull rotor off, now the 2 screws if you have to drill them or break them off its not a big thing and dont have to be replaced

 

I have an impact driver. Will that loosen the two screws?

cool signature.

 

it might but sometimes they just break, but like a said its no big thing, i break mine off all the time on honda's. you dont need to worry about them or to try and replace them just if they break oh well , you understand what im trying to say..?

 

I had a friend of mine have his blower motor go out on him today and it took my easy money in tools to replace the motor. Your sig appears to be two jeeps racing, ridgt?

 

most of the time you can just open up the blower motor and clean the brushes and put it back in, i did this with my integra and saved $$$, yes its 2 jeep racing lol, i own a jeep now. check it out

I had to drill out my brake rotor set screws. They are unnecessary anyway, so don't be afraid. They are there so they don't fall of the car while on the assembly line. The wheels hold the rotors to the hub once the lug nuts are on.

You will also want to remove the brake reservoir cap and then use a C-clamp to compress the caliper pistons so that when you put your new pads and rotors on the calipers won't be closed too much to fit over the added thickness.

Don't forget to replace your pads with the rotors.


Oh, and use brake cleaner to get the rust-proof shelf coating off of the rotors before installation. It will contaminate the brake pads if you do not remove it.
