newbie changing brakes
I have searched all through here, yahoo, google, ask, etc and i can't find pics and instructions on how to change pads and rotors on a 94 accord LX i found a few things about the stupid setup with joints and etc. can anybody link me to a site that has step by step instructions. Thanks
buy a haynes manual. lots of info in there. oh btw, getting the bearing/hub/rotor off the spindle is a biatch, and dont pound the bearing or it will be damaged and u will have to replace it. i would just get the bearing/hub/rotor pressed off the spindle. it'll run u at the most $80 to press both sides off. brake pads are a piece of cake tho. goodluck!!!

if u can remove the bearing/hub/rotor off the spindle then no, but most of the time u cant because it is rusted on so u have to get it pressed off.

here's a site iono if i posted this yet, but when u go behind the rotor to get the 4 bolts off, it's hard as hell to get it out of there, thats why u have to remove the spindle, take it to a machine shop to press it out. goodluck!!!

my solution to that, buy longer 10x1.25 bolts, around 60mm threaded completely down the bolt. Screw them in lightly in place of the 12mm ones in back, and pound away w/ a hammer, cris cross pattern til the hub+bearing fall out of the knuckle. Dont do it to the stock ones, you may ruin the heads of the bolts tahts why.
