Removing front discs!!!


Recommended Posts

Er....... might be a idea to take it to a garage? :D



Failing that - there should be two or three small (M6) threaded holes in the disc, these are so you can jack the disc off the hub (good thinking toyota!). Just grease them and wind bolts in, tightening them a bit at a time, alternating with giving the disc a "tap" with a large hammer.



Keep upping the torque on the bolts and the size of the "tap" and in the end the disc will jump off the hub.

Here's what I usually do:



-Remove wheels


-Undo both 12mm bolts which hold the caliper on to the carrier. (Make sure its a hexagon socket and not a star socket or you'll round it off)


-Remove both 17mm bolts which are also located on the back of the hub. These hold the carrier in place.


-Simply slide the disc of



As above failing this just let a garage do it for you just to be on the safe side because you dont want to mess your brakes up :)
