Hi -

I've read through more than a few threads and it seems most trouble folks find is removing the allen bolts...I had little problem with that procedure but I can't figure out how to remove the hub from the disk. The back has the "toothed" part...Should this part be removed from the back of the disk? The hub appears to be frozen in place.

I'm about to reinstall everything unless anyone out there has a answer.

Thanks ahead of time!

The hub and the rotor do come apart. I promise you. Just did it on my SDL (which is exactly like my old SEL). once you have the allen bolts loose fromthe inside of the hub, you have to stand the rotor us on something stable that will also somewhat support the hub. Grab a bunch of chisels. try to "gently" jhammer them betweent he hub and rotor. The hub is tapered toward the rotor as I recal so you have a natural place to put the tool. Pound a little here and a little there. Work you way around. Eventually, a gap will start to open up between the two pieces. When it does, slide a screwdriver or something in the gap to keep it from closing while you pound further around. Soon you will have the two apart. Oh, and be carefull around the "toothed part. that is the tone ring for the ABS. the ABS sensor sees the ring as a series of pulses and feeds them to the ABS computer. Youcan gently clean them with a brass wire brush and some solvent if dirty. (usually are). This is where your ABS light issues can come from.

Thanks a bunch. Got it off - just as you had described.....
