Want to replace the front rotors. A couple of questions.

My mechanic at work looked at the front rotors today when I had him change the brake pads. He said they looked "pressed on"
He needs to know what parts (grease, bearings, etc.) are necessary to remove and replace the front rotors. I already have the rotors.
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks.

Depends on what year? 2wd or 4wd?

Put vehicle info in your signiture so we dont have to try remembering.

Its a 2001 Rodeo. The rotors arent pressed on they are held in place by a nut and retainer ring on the spindle thats hidden behind the drive flanges. The part that holds all the studs is bolted to the rotor though and I believe you have to remove that and transfer it onto the new rotors. Make sure you dont overtighten the nut though or you can wear out the bearings alot faster.
