'98 CL 3.0 Front Rotor Replacement
From what I gather on the forum here, doing a complete front rotor/brake pad replacement shouldn't be too difficult (as far as not having to have them pressed). Is this accurate? I would like to be as confident as possible with the process before I turn that first lug...
Thanks for any input,

I think 97 is the only year with hub over rotor
The 98/99 is rotor over hub. Much more user friendly
You may have some rust to deal with and may need some pb blaster to soak the area where the rotor contacts the hub
Shouldnt be too difficult though

Spray the crap out of the rotor/hub let it soak for like 10minutes! Than Go at her! It should be pretty straight forward! Rip it all out, install the new stuff! Took me about like 25minutes each side! I put Slotted Rotors and Hawk Brake Pads! Just put all your tools near by, and it is a bit easier if you have someone to help you out a bit! Good Luck
