From memory the sequence is:

  • Jack up car
  • Remove road wheel
  • Remove brake caliper, hang it out of the way so the lines aren't under stress. The caliper bolts may be lockwired, mine are.
  • Remove split pin from castellated nut I break off the bent ends and use a pair of long-nosed pliers to wind the pin out
  • Undo castellated nut, withdraw hub and disc
  • Undo the 4 bolts holding the disc to the carrier on the hub
  • Tap the disc free with a rubber/hide/wooden mallet


But don't blame me if there's something I've forgotten smile
