Brake Job..
Guys, is there any DIY available brake job on 1st gen 3.2TL. I want to replace all rotors and pads but don't know how(never did it before), so if anybody knows about any DIY that will be great...

The download manual for 2.5 and 3.2 TL's will help.
Any Honda procedure for trapped rotors will work. See following link.

I've used a variation of this procedure w/ two long bolts (purchased from Honda, part of rear suspension). I used these two bolts on oppostie sides of the removed knuckle-hub assembly to separate the hub from the knuckle. I found it was too tight quarters to do in-place so I removed the entire knuckle-hub assembly. I used a 6" vise to suspend and restrain the knuckle while I rapped the bolts w/ a hammer (pretty hard raps!) to drive the hub out.
I wound up replacing rotors on three vehicles; Acura 2.2CL, 94 Accord EX, and Acura 2.5TL.
A good ball joint separator tool (not fork which damages boots) is essential. Good time to replace damaged boots. I found about half of mine were cracked and replaced all of them.
good luck
