Hello does anyone know what size the SCREW is,that you can screw into the rotors to help remove them???

 

I'm pretty sure it's and someone please correct me if I'm wrong.

M8-1.25x35

 

M8 x 1.25 is also my recollection. Typically I just use a wire brush and a rubber mallet to tap the rotor if needed. Keep rotating the rotor as you tap. You should consider using anti-seize on the hub to help prevent the rotors from sticking.

 

I drilled out the factory screw in the fall as they would not come out,I have 73K brakes still work very well but want to put new rotors on,in the spring with new pads

 

From what I have read you need to use an impact driver to break it loose. If you decide to drill it out here are some overpriced replacements.

not going to replace them they only use them to make sure rotors didnt fall off when biulding the car

 

There seems to be two different discussions happening. SpeedLimitz and I were discussing the threaded holes that you can insert bolts to remove the rotors. It appears that Thurst63 is now talking about the small screw that holds the rotor to the hub.

 

Yeah I'm assuming your trying to get rotor off hub. If your careful you can hit the rotor area around wheel studs to break rotor loose, don't hit the studs obviously

 

use the caliper guide bolts

honda purposerly used same threadpitch as brake caliper pins

 

No I wanted to know about the screw to remove,I was just saying that I already drilled out the screws they use to hold them on in the factory

 

I figured the back out screws would be better then hitting on the rotors with rubber hammer,how long (miles ) has anyone gone with out new rotors??

 

You need this tool and a BFH to remove stuck rotor screws.

I have drilled them out once, when I couldn't find my tool.
You don't need to replace them. The rotor is sufficiently clamped between the hub and the rim.

 

honda puts them on there, so id follow suite to keep it on there

 

They are mainly to hold the rotor on while the car is being built. It might make it easier to put the loaded caliper back on if it isn't spread all the way. Up to you. Put em back in or leave them out.

 

it's a philips head #3, hammer the end of the screwdriver and remove by rotating out.
