Subject:Replacing brake rotors [Syncro]
From:BRENT CHRISTENSEN

Hey all:

Just ordered all the goodies to replace my front rotors, control arm
bushings, ball joints, etc. from Bus Depot, and I have a question:

Should I plan to replace front wheel bearings if I am replacing the rotors?
I have not looked closely at the front brakes yet, and haven't even looked
at my Bentley, so I am shooting in the dark a bit.  As near as I can tell,
the rotors were last replaced about 55,000 miles ago, and there is no
mention of wheel bearings being replaced, even prior to that.
