Brake Job
Hey, Im doing my first brake job on my 02 Superduty. It doesnt look hard at all but the part im worried about is i heard something about hub seals?? Does that interfere with taking off the rotors and putting the new ones on. Im putting new rotors all the way around my front ones rusted and split in half and i got rust holes on the rear. Any helpful tips, Thanks

It is a rather simple procedure on the SD's. Remove the brake caliper and bracket...and slide off the old rotor. Install the new rotor and re-assemble. Make sure to follow the torque rating...and that is pretty much it.
IMHO...You should also lube the caliper slide pins...
Here is a link that will help explain better...and it has pictures to boot!

Make sure to "bed in" your brakes according to the rotor and/or pads instructions.
Good luck...
