front on an accord?


heheheeh......they get to be fun if you dont know what is goin on. they have a non floating rotor (most years, check to be sure) that you will need to pull the rotor off of first to do. the rotor is mounted behind the hub, not a slip off one like most cars...


generally entails removing the whole wheel bearing/rotor assembly from the car....


sometimes can be done on teh car. all depends

firestone charged me 40 to replace two, well worth $$ versus the pain I would have gone through to change them out.

damn..if they only charged 40, that is hella good. it is like 1.5 hours to change them out on a non floating accord, and we are 60/hr...

ya got a good deal. but, were they broken when you brought it in, or did they break them taking the wheel off?
