Rotor Install

These are the step-by-step instructions to installing rotors either aftermarket or OEM on your honda prelude.

I bought the Power Slot Rotors on sale for $80 each w/ free shipping

I bought the Power Stop Pads at Pep Boys Auto for $20

• Remove the Wheel
• Remove one Caliper bolt and swing the caliper up (Bolts on outer section pictured)

• Remove the pads from the caliper

• Remove the mounting bracket for the brake line on arm (allows for more caliper movement)
• Remove the large bolts behind the caliper assembly 
• (Bolts on inner section pictured)

• Remove entire assembly and rest on lower control between calipers.
• (prevent the brake line from being stressed)
• (Pictured in upper right corner)

• Use a Impact Wrench with Philips head #2 to remove the 2 Philips screws
• Remove the Rotor… may be difficult.. bang with hammer several times to loosen

• Check the rotor for abnormal wear.. as seen above.. deep grooves in rotor wall.
• Hub should now look like picture below without rotor

• Install new rotor as seen in picture, Power Slot Rotors
• (Pay Special attention to the Right or Left Rotor.. important in slotted rotors)
• Right rotor goes on passenger side and left rotor goes on drivers side

• Slide new rotor on and place 2 screws back in. hit only once with impact wrench

• Compress the piston back into the cylinder wall

• Put retainer & caliper back on rotor (rotor swung up)

• slide new power stop pads, NEVER REUSE PADS, in grooves on retainer
• Slide the calipers over the pads and bolt down.
• Put the wheel back on

That should be it… Enjoy!
