front rotor removal

[89mulletbird]

OK, it looks like the front rotor also houses the wheel bearings? Any trick to getting the front rotors off. I haven't attempted yet, but wanted to ask before I break something!

take the dust cap off the rotor and there is a large cotter pin and locking nut .... personally if ya don't know much about this get someone who does.. I wouldn't want to loose a wheel or a wheel bearing becuase ya screwed it up

Yeah, I did that and saw the pin and nut. I do alot of mechanic work, I've just never seen rotors like this before and wanted to reconfirm what I was seeing! What all is going to come out, the pin, nut, and bearing?

Pull out the cotter pin, loosen the nut and the nut and a washer will come off.

undo the caliper and pull the rotor off, there will be a front bearing and a rear bearing. The bearing races are on the rotor.

It should be nearly identical to a T/R or pretty much every rear drive GM for that matter.
