F+R Brake pad + rotor replacement
 
Hey guys,

I'm hoping to install new brake pads and rotors on my '83 RX7 in the next few days, but haven't changed these out on a car without wheel hubs before.

Do the rotors just slide off? Will I need a bearing press to remove + re-install the bearings? If I don't have a bearing press, am I better off just having a workshop do it instead?


I searched a bit and couldn't find much on the topic, so any help would be appreciated!

No bearing press required.

You can go to http://foxed,ca and get the manuals. They don't have the 1983 factory service manual but this 1985 will get you what you need.
