I am trying to change my rotors on a 2000 DII. Do I need to pull the hub? If not how do I get the rotors off? If so how do I get the hub off? I am having a lot of trouble.

You don't need to pull the hub. There is a big countersunk phillips head screw that you will need to unscrew - it may take an impact driver to get it out.

Then a big gear puller will pop the rotor off the hub.

Or, if you don't have a gear puller that large you can use a BFH (3# should work). The phillips on mine were so siezed I needed to cut a slot into them and use a large flat head screw driver. Nothing else seemed to work. Pugsly's method is more correct though.

I just went through this a few weeks back. Yes it requires a large Phillips (which I don't own) When all else fails you can simply drill the screw out, that is what I ended up having to do. Once your wheels back on the rotors aren't going to go anywhere. Good luck to you.. RS

Are the rotors on the DII similar to those found on cars now? I mean, can they be removed without removing all those other things as on a DI?
