Brake Rotor

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

1. Raise and safely support the vehicle. Remove the wheel and tire assembly.
2. Remove the caliper and support it aside with mechanic's wire; do not let the caliper hang by the brake hose. On all except Navajo, remove the disc brake pads and mounting support.
3. On 2WD Pickups and Navajo, remove the dust cap, cotter pin, nut, washer and outer bearing and remove the rotor from the spindle.
4. On 4WD Pickups, remove the locking hub or drive flange, snapring and spacer, set bolts and bearing set plate. Remove the bearing locknut using a suitable puller and remove the hub and rotor assembly, being careful not to let the washer and bearing fall.
5. On 4WD Navajo, remove the locking hub and remove the brake rotor.
6. On MPV models, remove the attaching screw and remove the rotor.
7. Inspect the rotor for scoring, wear and runout. Machine or replace as necessary.
8. If rotor replacement is necessary on pickup models, remove the attaching bolts and separate the rotor from the hub.
9. Install the rotor. On B Series pickup, tighten the rotor-to-hub bolts to 40–51 ft. lbs. (54–69 Nm). Adjust the wheel bearings.
