yeah these are designed to push the rotor off.

I know, why people insist on using hammers instead I'll never understand...

You shall most definitely receive a call if another instance like this takes place. I was ready to throw that hammer through every window in my vehicle.

lol yea the rears dont have those holes do they?? i know the fronts do beating onthem with a hammer if your going to reuse them is a better idead , i have ran into cracking the rotors using the bolts . if your not reusing them then sure. im a proffesional mechanic and i still beat rotors off .

Yes the rears have press holes.

Use them evenly and they won't crack.

Ever seen some one wrap a chain around one and then attach it to a go cart?? Makes for a very interesting evening.

**Boomer3000** · 03-21-2011, 03:07 PM

Busted lip?

LOL, I didn't know you wrote this up. The bolt holes was the only suggestion I had as well. I never considered the e-brake was on!! The awkward pause was epic though, followed by "uhh, well I gotta go man, later". HAHAHAHAHA!!
