Rear discs

(1/2) > >>

winchman:
Do they just come off easily or do you have to strip the bearings out?

ChrisW:
The bearings can stay intact inside the hub although it's good practice to regrease them before putting it all back together.
The disc should come off seperately without affecting the bearings but the whole hub has to come off the axle.

winchman:
Thought so they arnt too bad so will just put pads in for now.
Thanks

hobbit:
As chris says no probs, easy job if you have abs you have to remove the ring I believe to get at the bolts for the discs, they can be tight, and you will have to anchor the hub to crack them off, I normally use a couple of spare wheels and drop the hub into them

As for the bearings, for what it costs for new ones, and depending on what you intend on doing with the vehicle it could be worth changing them while you have the hubs out

Range Rover Blues:
I have had to cut disks in half before to get them off, but I believe on the original RR at least that the front and rear had the same hub.
