Default Replacing rear rotors & bleeding sequence question

I just got the front rotors replaced on my girl's 1994 Accord Ex, and although the steering wheel shake is gone, I am now feeling more vibration coming from the rear. So, I wanted to swap the rear rotors with the brembo blanks.

My question is whether I will need to take apart the whole hub assembly to take out the rear rotor, and whether the rear rotors need to get pressed in like the front ones.

Also, can someone with a Helms manual please look up the proper brake bleeding sequence for me?

Thanks for your help guys.

Nope, the rear are rotor-over-hub, unlike the fronts. You just need to remove (or drill out) 2 rotor screws.

Both of these bleeding patterns have been proven to work, you tend to want to work from the furthest from the master cylinder to the closest (closest = LF):

RR, RF, LR, LF
RR, LR, RF, LF

Thanks for the pointers.

So which brake bleeding sequence is from Helms?

use an impact driver to get the rotor screws out, using a regular philips head will round it out and u will have to drill it out anyways. u dont need the screws tho, there there for ease of installation
