Red face need help installing new brake rotores

I haven't posted in a looong time(been busy @ work etc.) but I was wondering if someone could help me install new rotors on my front end? I don't have a hub puller so I need to find someone to let me borrow. but if there is someone willing to show me how to do it it'd be much appreciated. otherwise, can someone direct me to a good place to get it done? lmk @ 381-2080 thanx,
-andrew

hey bro, you dont need a hub puller to change the brake rotor. all you need to do is completely take off the capiper and take off the rotor. if it is being stubborn, find a flat tip screw that matches the threads in the small holes in the rotor to push the rotor off.

Also, if its stubborn, use a rubber mallet and rap it on the back until it budges.
