How can I find out or tell if my rotors are pressed on?

if you have a 90-97 accord that hasnt been modified then you do. pull the wheel off and look, there should be bolts looking like they are holding the rotor on.

They are not pressed on, Its just over the years the design makes it extreamly hard to come off. The rust makes the wheel bearing stick to the hub.

You will most likely have to take it to a shop to get pressed out.Originally posted by bishpuppy View PostComment

90-93 def needs to be pressed. do the ROH it's about the same price ($350) as having a shop press and replace your current rotors.

the hubs are pressed, the rotors are not. later.Comment

you have to remove the entire knuckle to take the rotor off, because the rotor is bolted behind a flange on one end of the hub, but the wheel bearing is pressed onto the other end of the hub and the wheel bearing is bolted to the knuckle, which may have to be pressed out depending on its condition.Comment

There are ways to get them off yourself... you can search the DIY section for how-to threads. There are at least 2 methods. Be prepared to replace your lower ball joints at the same time, and possibly your wheel bearings. It'd be a good idea to replace that stuff anyway.

Energy Suspension makes a boot kit for our cars...its about 15 bucks shipped on ebay. If your BJ's are new and dont need replacement, then this would be the way to go.Originally posted by deevergote. View Post
