Iirc... our front bearings are all-in-one with the rotor... (one of the reasons why a new rotor is so pricey)...as well as the ABS "ring" sensor.

So you're saying that these rotors are a sealed unit and that repacking is NOT an option... I just want to take them for their first turning and put the new pads on.

Either...

Just make sure the shop doing it is aware of the abs ring location...

On my 93 bronco, the brake disc and ring appears one piece with the hub, but only the wheel studs hold them together as a unit and when the studs are driven out, they separate. NBD to remove and reinstall the studs.

I havnt looked at the 07's, but are they similar or are they actually cast as one piece?
