Resolved advise on front rotor swap.

[frigginlazer]

Ok I finally got my new front rotors and pads for my laser, as my old rotors are WARPED beyond belief. I will be putting them on tomorrow morning, but since the temp is supposed to be in the mid to upper thirtys I dont want to be out messing around trying to figure things out. so my questions are

1. What size wrenches will I need to have ready.

2. other than a BFH is there anything special I will need to pull the old rotors off? (should just be pull tire, two bolts for the calipers and the rotor pulls straight off right?)

3. Any common issues that trip people up?

Like I said it is COLD out right now, today was -13 with wind chill, so I want to get this done QUICK!

Thanks for the answers.

It's a DSM! You'll need 14mm and maybe 17mm. Mostly, you need to read something like this, not that I'm telling you to search or anything....

thanks, that was just wht I was needing. total time spent on both rotors and new pads was 50 mins.

finally dont have a warped front left rotor, and man does it ride nice now.
