the threaded holes are for removing the rotor. If the rotor does not come off with ease, a bolt of the same size can be inserted in and the rotor "pryed" off, using a socket set.

How do you replace the front disc brakes on your 2000 Mazda Millenia?

jack up the car, and support with jackstands. pull off the wheel. unbolt the caliper and tie it up out of the way. now the disc can come off. if it is stuck on there, you will see a couple of threaded holes, these are 8 mm, get an appropriate sized bolt, and screw them in there. as they are screwed in, they will lift the disc off of the hub. make sure your new rotors have these threaded holes, the buttco discs dont have them.


How do you change the brake pads and rotors in an Acura Legend?

Jack up the front of the car and support on jackstands and remove the front wheels. Remove some brake fluid from the master cylinder reservoir. The calipers are mounted on brackets which have two bolts attaching them to the steering knuckles. Remove the two small bolts attaching the calipers to the brackets and support them with wire, then remove the brackets. Remove two retaining screws from each rotor and remove the rotors. The retaining screws may require an impact type screwdriver to remove them and if the rotors are stuck they can be removed by threading two 10 mm bolts into threaded holes in the rotors. The rotors should be machined or replaced. Reverse to reassemble. After the caliper mounting brackets are in place install the pads on them and press the piston in on the caliper with a c-clamp and install it over them. The caliper bracket bolts are tight (I believe 80 ft lbs) but the small bolts holding on the calipers are ~20 ft lbs I think. Pump the brake pedal several times to seat the pads.


How do you change the rotors on 1995 Camry?

You need to remove the wheel (put the car on the jack stands), after that remove the caliper, brake pads, the caliper holder. After you get access to the rotor itself. You have to be ready to spend some time because of rust usually rotors don't give easy. It would a great idea to rent/buy a special pulley, it will simplify our life a lot. Rotors have two screws holes, if you find bolts which fit those holes and tighten them in those holes it might help you remove the rotor. PS: you need to get stuff which helps to penetrate rusty areas. Something like WD-40 but stronger. There is one thing which is "Deep creep" or something like it's very good. You can get it in AutoZone.

How do you remove the brake rotors on a 2002 Kia Sportage 4 wheel drive vehicle?

hello, to remove the brake rotors on a 2001, 1. jack and remove wheels; 2. there are two large bolts that hold the entire brake caliper on; on a 2001 they are 19mm. Get a cheater bar on it because they are well-torqued. 3. step #2 will allow you to remove the caliper assembly and tie it out of the way. 4. you will now find two large Phillips (cross tip) screws hold the rotor on...remove them. 5. get the WD40 and spray the base of the lugs and around the bearing housing. 6. time for a big rubber mallet and you can pry gently while hitting...it will likely be rusted in place...don't loose patience it may take at little time to break it free. hope it helps. Joe FTI. the screws you removed in 4 are used to pop the rotor loose. Instead of prying and using a mallet, you will notice two threaded screw holes in the rotor (not the ones you took the screws out of. If you screw the screws your removed into these holes they will bottom against the flange on the other side of the rotor. Tighten them both, and the force will pop the rotor loose. This works like a charm and you don't have to pound on your bearing housing.

What screws are used as a simple machine?

Screws are classified as simple machines, specifically as an inclined plane wrapped around a cylinder. When a screw is turned, it converts rotational force (torque) into linear force along the threaded shaft, allowing for easier lifting or holding of objects, as seen in tasks such as tightening a screw or lifting a heavy object using a jack.


Where can I purchase brake rotors online?

You can purchase break rotors online at Rotorsonline.com. Putting on break rotors is a little time consuming. You will have to take the tires completely off to put the rotors back on. It will be good if you had a vehicle lift or a really good jack.


How can I rotate rotors to ensure optimal performance of my vehicle?

To ensure optimal performance of your vehicle, you can rotate the rotors by following these steps: Lift the vehicle using a jack and secure it with jack stands. Remove the wheels to access the rotors. Use a wrench to loosen the bolts holding the rotors in place. Rotate the rotors by hand to check for any uneven wear or damage. If needed, replace the rotors with new ones. Reassemble the wheels and lower the vehicle. Test drive the vehicle to ensure smooth braking performance.


How do you remove the rear brake drums on a 2000 Ford ZX2?

With a hammer, not a joking. hit it on the back side of the top out, but please take the tire off first. Better solution: First take off the two screws.These are the countersunk holes with Phillips head screw. These screws are holding the drum. The brake drum has one or two threaded holes. These are not the countersunk holes with Phillips head screw that hold the drum to the wheel flange but are in the other one or two spaces between the lug bolt holes. On my ZX2, these holes are threaded for a 1/4 inch bolt (1/2 inch wrench), 16 threads per inch. Thread a bolt at least one inch long into each hole and tighten the bolt. If your car has only one hole as does mine, tighten the bolt to apply pressure to one side of the drum, then use a pry bar to ease the other side of the drum off. The lug nut wrench with the jack makes a good pry bar for this.
