1995 Honda Accord EX, Rear Rotor Replacement

I know on the front disc you have to press out the wheel bearing in order to replace the rotor. Is that true for the rear as well? In need to know as soon as possible.

The rear rotors are held on by 2 screws. You will need to get an impact screwdriver in order to even budge the screws.

Yes ... it is 2 screws ... NOT 4. The 4 you may be speaking of would be the lug nuts. The screws that are being referred to in the thread are on the face of the rotor itself.

The caliper assy would have to be removed as well to get the rotor off the hub. It is held on in the back with 2 bolts that require a 14mm wrench to remove. Once it is removed (the caliper that is) then the rotor will come off. You may have to use a hammer on the face of the rotor (not the surface where the pad makes contact ... but the area where the screws are) to get it to break loose. More times then not the rotor will be rusted to the hub.
