Hello, I have always wondered why the two piece rotor and hub removal/installation procedure is not explained in the service manual (I have '70 Dart).
And I had a heck of a time trying to find out how to cut and remove the wheel studs, get new studs, use a press machine (I had to buy a press machine at Harbor Freight tools JUST FOR THIS) to press new studs back in, etc. No explanation whatsoever in service manual.
Local auto parts people (even the older style "more personal service" type auto stores had no clue how to do that). They just gave me the rotor and said here you go....I was like what do I do with this? How do I put the studs in? They had no idea.
Did Dodge at one time ever make one piece rotor/hubs ('65-'72)?
Thanks, when I get a chance, I'll post some of my pics on the procedure.
I'm just curious because this procedure took a lot of time and money, wondering if at the time (early '70s) how much something like this would have cost to have it done professionally/or at the dealer.
I just hope I did it right, I don't want the studs breaking off, etc., but I'm sure I did, as this was done about 4 years ago, but then again I drive the Dart only about 15-20 miles a month.
