While your at it get wheel bearing grease and 2 seals. So long as the bearings are ok you can clean and repack them.

One easy way to get the old seal out is remove the outter bearing, and re-install the nut, and then pull off the rotor. That leaves the inner bearing on the axle stub and the old seal with it.

With new pads on dead rotors you want to limit miles, as the new pads will take a wear pattern, which could transfer to the new rotors... You probably don't want that...

If the backing plates are nasty you might also wish to renew those at the same time... Your there any way... Mac
