2008 SG Front Wheel Removal?
I picked up a set of factory brake rotors that I had polished and I want to take the front wheel off and put them on instead of the stock ones.
What is the short version of "how to"?
Do the brake Cal. need to come off first or can you slide the new wheel up into them?
Torque # on the front axle after I put it back in ?
No - I don't have the service manual for it yet - hope to get it for Christmas! But I'd like to get these swapped out over TGiving.
It's not a antilock model if that matters
thanks

I would have to check my manual on torque but I'm sure someone will post it here before I get out into the garage....

Axle nut 60-65 ft-lbs axle cap nuts 132-180 in-lbs Caliper mounting screws 28-38 ft-lbs Rotors 16-24 lbs Make sure the spacers stay the way they came off and use anti seize on the axel
