Re: 99 Tacoma 4x4 Front Brake Rotor Removal
On your model it's simple.. They come off when you take ff the caliper. The
caliper is held on with two bolts. Remove them and hang the caliper out of
the way with some bailing wire. Then the rotors about fall off. They are
actually held on with the lug bolts but the caliper is clamped down on it.
You might need to back the caliper pistons off a bit with a c-clamp.
I just did a break job on my 98 and it should be the same. Actually the
hardest part I had was getting the stupid disk pad pins out as they were
rusted in. But the rotor's were easy.
