Hey, I finally got someone to help me put my rotors on my 1996 Accord Coupe. I got a few questions for those knowledgable enough to help.

First these are press on rotors right??? Since they are, I don't (nor does he) have the tools to put them on so I need what tools? This is what I've compiled from what little info the Haynes tells me...

I need: (I'm renting these from autozone, so I got the descriptions from the site)
Front Wheel Drive Hub Puller http://www.autozone.com/servle...Etrue
slide hammer is threaded 5/8” x 18 http://www.autozone.com/servle...r.jsp
30mm/32mm Axle Nut Socket (size could be wrong, please correct me) http://www.autozone.com/servle...t.jsp

This is all I have so far. If anyone has done this before, please give me a complete list of tools to remove the rotors and re-install them (note: I don't have access to air tools). I'll be taking pics the whole time with my digi camera and will use the Haynes manual, my experience tomorrow morning, and your input to make a THOROUGH diy for rotors on 5th gens.

Thanks everyone! Please help me out, I need to make it to the 24 hr Autozone tonight to rent these tools.

 

BTW I can only post a few posts in 24 hrs, since I'm a trial user so please do the best you can helping me out. Also, if you have any tips or (much better) a step-by-step with the tools I need please help me out I really need to get my car safe to drive tomorrow for work. Thanks again.

 

Never done rotors on an accord, but helped my friend put some on his 2nd gen CRX. Might be similar, and if so, there's a chance that there's a guide screw in there too. Not really needed, but if it's present then you'll need a phillip's head screwdriver as well.

Hopefully more experienced users will post up shortly. I'm still pretty much a noob in a lot of senses.

the fronts are pressed on the rear on not, you need to have them pressed on by a shop or someone else by taking the car and doing it there or taking off the whole assembley and bringing it to a shop

 

****. So this process of changing rotors is not a good idea to do myself??

 

you can . . . plenty of people do, its just safer to have a shop press the rotors on for you, takes like 5 min a side . . . max, they use hydrualic presses to do it
