For those who have changed rear rotors, did you guys use a deep socket to get the nut off the hub thread? Anyone know whats size socket (mm) it is?

I think from memory you just undo the countersunk screw and belt the old rotor off,ive got the 3/4 drive imperial socket size if you need me to check it i can if you want to remove the hub.

Yeh i removed the screw and i tried whacking the rotor and levering it with a bar and the rotor wasnt budging. So i thought the pack nut was holding it in and didnt have the tools to get it off at the time. So i just put it back together to do another time.
Il just have to put a bit more muscle into it if by the sounds of things . Thanks |

Might need to back off the hand brake as there may be a bit of lip iside holding it on.

The rotor rusts onto the hub. You need to soak it good with Rost-off or similiar. Then get under the car with a lump of 3x2 hardwood and a big hammer
