Just wondering if anyone could post a guide outlining replacing the brake rotors on a Vn.

Cheers

Pretty easy mate.. This may sound a bit easy but theres a bit more envolved.. Make sure with your new disc's you grease pack the bearings.. Remove bolts of old disc's.. Replace with new.. Re-Attach.. Bleed Brakes.. Drive away..

Look its Generic with all cars, so google up 'How to change Disc Brakes' and youll find out, theres no difference between a VN to a Toyota Supra as far as i can see

Ok mate thanks. I've recently replaced the front bearings, so i want to re-use these. I don't have a bearing press, is there some otherway of pressing the bearings in???

If you are close to an exhaust shop, get 2 bits of exhaust tube, one the size of the outer cone and one the size of the inner cone and using them tap the cones in gently until they are firmly seated in the new hub. Wipe all the dirt and crap out before installing. Use a nail punch or a small cold chisel to tap the cones out of the old disc careful to keep them straight, using the recesses in each side. If you look through the center of the hub you will see the little recesses and the backs of each cone.

if you still have the old bearing cups grind the OD a little, then they are perfect for tapping bearing in. use long thin punch to tap your new bearing outa the old rotor/hub and then fit into new rotor/hub etc
