Default Brake Rotor Dismount Procedure??

I need all the info I can get on dismounting the Rotors on a 95' Accord. I hear that the Bearing may have to be taken out something about pre-96 having "captured rotors". Please help!!!! P.S. Pads are no problem, I need info on getting the rotors off.

This is for replacing the hub but the same instructions apply.
"Hub Unit Removal and Wheel Bearing
Replacement
1. Remove the knuckle from the hub unit.

Check for damage
or cracks.
2. Remove the splash guard from the knuckle.
3. Remove the four flange bolts, then separate the hub
unit from the brake disc.
5. Press the wheel bearing inner race from the hub
using the special tools and a commercially available
bearing separator as shown.

4. Separate the wheel bearing from the front hub using
the special tools and a press as shown.
CAUTION: Hold onto the hub to keep it from falling
when pressed clear.
Check for wear and rust.
6. Replace the bearing with a new one after removal.
NOTE: Wash the knuckle and hub thoroughly in high
flash point solvent before reassembly.
7. Press a new wheel bearing into the hub using the
special tools and a press as shown.

well, sorta but not really. You shouldn't have to deal with pressing of the inner race/bearing and hub when replacing the rotor.

Do you mean "Remove the hub unit from the knuckle"?

Why would you have to remove this?

it's copied directally from Honda. I don't ask I just do it
But your right you wouldn't need to remove the race unless your replacing the bearing as well
you would need to remove the shield if you were using a hydraulic press (it gets in the way)
