so just to be clear, you want to basically disassemble the front half of the engine and leave the rear intact?

the simple answer is don't try it. you should pull the whole engine apart and rebuild it as a unit.

I agree with dibolical 1; you should just disassemble the whole thing. You're already putting in 95% of the work to just get to the point where you can service the front rotor, so you might as well put in the other 5% to service the rear. It's probably worth it to just inspect the overall condition of the rear rotor anyways and service anything that is out of tolerance.

If you fix the front rotor but don't mess with the back rotor you're going to be in for a bad time.
