Removing brake rear rotors- any issues?


Recommended Posts

I changed out the front rotors on our 2005 Impreza Outback Sport, but the vibration in he pedal persists, so I plan to change out the rear rotors as well.

 

I've removed front rotors from several different kids of cars with no issues, but is there anything different from the front, that I need to look out for when removing rear rotors on a Subaru (especially with the emergency brake)?

stevo f,

 

That all depends on what year, model and mileage your car is.

 

But basically, no. Same deal as the front, but if the rear rotors don't come off after you have the calipers and their mounts off, you'll have to go to the backing plates and back off the emergency brake shoe adjusters to get the rotors to clear the shoes.

 

Check YouTube for examples.
