Subject:Replacing Front 84 Brake Discs

Hi all,

 

I am just starting to replace the front discs, pads and bearings.  I am wondering what is the best way to get the hub cover off?  I do not have the special VW tools listed within the bentley and was looking for some suggestions.  Also,  I am wondering if I will have to disconnect the caliper from the line to be able to remove the Brake Disc?  It seems that there would not be enough room with that little metal line to the caliper.  Anyone in Bozeman, MT able to swing by and help a beginner mechanic LOL.
