    Brake questions

    Hello Fellow "Little Dragon" owners. Has anyone removed the front brake rotor to have it machined? I would be very thankful for details on how to remove the darn thing. I have the center hub removed and now I'm looking at a center piece with 3 philip screws. I tried removing the screws, but they are in pretty snug...not sure if they need to be removed

    Thanks for the help in advance

    Those screws are how you get to your wheel bearings.....you have to be very careful not to bugger them up when removing them....

    Are you the guy I talked to at the post office way back???
    Ask forgiveness, not permission.
