Subject:brake disc
From:Jonathan Clay
Date:Mon, 5 Oct 1998 11:09:13 EDT

Hey again,

Okay, if anyone read my previous message (someone did I know) I am performing
my first "brake job."  I think I confused some of you with the previous,
but........that's what ya get from now folks.  Anyway, changing the brake pads
is easy enough, I got that part down.  The problem part is removing the "brake
disc."  I want to get it grinded (turned) to get all the ruts/grooves out.  My
question:  Is it correct to remove the grease cap and unscrew the axle nut
with washer and wheel bearing to get this brake disc off to get serviced.  Am
I going in the right direction, it seems to me that I am, but not having
worked on this before I just want to make sure before I cause some grave, and
possible costly fo pa!!!!!!

any imput helps as most of the guru's of our vans live in this area
oh by the way I am doing this on an '88 van
