1993 ES300 - How do you remove front rotors?
Thought replacing front rotors would be easy but guess it isn't. Can anyone tell me how to remove front rotors?
Thanks,
Jim

1993 ES300 - How to remove front rotors?
Thanks,
My rotors are obviously rusted solid on the hub. Big hammer doesn't do a thing. However, after talking to my local mechanic, I now know what the two threaded holes are for on face of rotor.
RTIS250 (12-21-09), also had the answer, here it is:
"And for the record. After removing the caliper and bracket, there is nothing holding the rotor to the hub but rust. There will be 2 holes that are threaded on the hub face of the rotor. A 12mm head/10mm shaft .125 thread (pretty sure thats right) bolt can be run into the hole to push the rotor off of the hub."
