Front rotor replacment...help!!
I just purchased two front drilled rotors. I was wondering if anyone had the break down of the installation procedure. I am taking the car to the track on saturday and was wondering if I have enough time to install them in one day. They are going on a 77s.
Thanks, Todd

Go to http://vintagebus.com/howto/brakes/front/
Although you're not converting to turbo brakes, you'll see the procedure outlined for removing the hubs, which is a PITA for most people the first time. What's not detailed on the page is separating the hubs from the rotors - that's easy! Remove the 5 bolt and nuts holding them together - *after* you've removed the hub from the spindle - and tap them apart with a mallet. Grab some fresh wheel bearing grease and re-pack the bearings whilst you're in there. You have plenty of time - I can do this op in about an hour.
