Very Hard!!! Just take a look at some of the posts on the forum. Very few have no problems on an older vehicle.

Mine fall off the hubs everytime I remove my front wheels.....

Granted I've replaced my front brake pads 4 times in the past 4 years so I guess I never give the rotors a chance to stick.....oh by the way, I put on Wagner Semi's and like mentioned above, have had to replace every single year (yes, they are warranted for life or I wouldn't keep putting the same pads back on) as they wear irregularly and start squeeling. FWIW, I put some ceramic pads on the back a few years back that have never given me one bit of trouble.

2000Expy - thanks for the info on the Locktite - alldatadiy does not mention this at all.

What 'flavor' of Locktite should be used - they make several kinds. I'm not sure they are really different but I don't want to find out the hard way they are
