Rotor removal 2003 Elantra

Mar 18, 2006 1 Replies

I am trying to remove the front rotors of a 2003 Elantra. I have removed the two phillips head screws and cannot pull the rotors off. Is there a puller that I can use or do I just need a bigger hammer?



Thanks,



Mike



From personnel experience soak them down with some type of rust penetrate. Then get the biggest dam sledge you can get into the space and beat the rotor first front side all around until you see some sign of movement then give it at tap rear side. Note: Have new rotors on hand they old ones will look worse for wear and tear. Coat the new rotor with anti seize and with any luck they will come off easy next time. Major pain I feel for you.
