1995 E320 Sedan - OOPS! Rear brake rotor disassembly

Got some new wheels and tires yesterday... Jacked up the rear of the car in utter excitement!! Didn't put the emrg. brake on.... and down she came. The car fell and it landed on the dust cover. Now I have a click and rub!!! I have looked all around the spinning masses and the stationary dust sheild and don't see where the rub and click are coming from!!!

I am hoping that someof you can 1 tell me if anything like this has happened to you... and how the hell i go about pulling the hub off to inspect the hub itself to see where a rub might be coming from.

1. the dust shield is a little deformed although its not terrible (must be just neough huh!?!)
2. I have verified that the new wheel is NOT rubbing on the dust cover or anything else.
3. the rub and click are very subtle when spinning the tire while mounted on the hub and the resistance increases jsut slightly where the hub makes the noises.
4. Ican see no visible spots where the brake rotor is coming into contact with anything that is stationary.
5. I have verified that the rotor never touched the ground... ie it shouldn't be a culprit but some how seems to be.

There is some crazy nut on the hub... I don't knw where I would even start looking for the socket that fits it...



I need pics, and directions on how to take this thing apart... anyone got a few minutes to spare with me??

Thanks guys!!!

Justin
