Another point is to unload the brake caliper first (if the brakes are assembled)
I am amazed at that oversight in the fsm ...

axial play when pushing was good at between .005-.01mm on both rotors...hopefully not more when pulling once I find some smaller bolts or a large enough spacer I'll check both...
