Hi,
I have a 93 explorer sport 4x4 and the right front brake rotor is warped
pretty badly. It has been like this for a few years and I just lived with
it. Well I need to do front brakes on the thing this weekend and was
thinking of replacing the rotor at the same time and while I am at it put in
new wheel bearings. Is removing the rotor a tough process? Is there any
special tools I may need?
thanks for you replies in advance,
Scott
By the way I had to take it thru Washington State Emissions test today and
my explorer has 199,650 miles on it and it did better than my bosses 1 year
old Dodge...

It's not a tough process and you don't have to have any special tools
although a short piece of 1.5" PVC to push the cam back over the axle
is useful. You do need to take the automatic hubs parts off to get
the disk off. Best done by following a repair manual the first time
you do it.
