I am in the process of restoring my rear brakes. New calipers, new rotors. The rotors and calipers are shot and new ones are on the way. I'm trying to get the old rotors off and I've discovered a rotor attachment screw (one of two) on each rotor is stripped.
One of these on each rotor and the inside pad adjustment screw is stripped on both calipers. Since I am ditching the rotors, can I just bore out the head of the screw, take the rotor off and then either wrench the screw out by the exposed shaft of the screw or, if all else fails, tap it out? I'm probably forgetting something but it seems like a plan... Advice? B T Rex |
