I have to say how much you remind me of DieselTechRon who was my diesel God. He is sadly missed. I've been retired from my job as a heavy equipment, truck and car mechanic for some time now and to watch your professionalism on TH-cam is such a pleasure. If the kids these days wake up, pay attention, listen, and get the free education from people like Jimthecarguy, they will make a great living and never be out of work and always be in demand. Thanks for all the videos. There is always something new to learn from you Jim!!! I hope you live to be 100.

Jim, you do a great job. Keep it up as long as you can. I've seen that bolt trick only once before in my life and it is a real prayer answered when you've got a firmly attached rotor. As others have noted most people just beat the rotor with a hammer or use a puller and may work at it a very long time before the rotor finally breaks free. I suppose it's possible to bend that little dog-eared section where you're tightening the bolt, but I've never had it happen. However, if that section is made of aluminum I would be very cautious.

I have never used the bolt trick .. the high school I work at has a rotor puller. That works very well. I had to put enough pressure on my 13 f150 rotor that the piece of 3/16 plate I had put over the dust cap deformed enough to dent the dust cap. When that rotor came off I think it went 5 feet straight before it started to fall. When I did the other side I used 2 plates and put a lug nut on to catch it... lesson learned

Jim, The rotors on my car rust up just sitting overnight. It will need new brakes soon. Can I do anything to prevent that from happening next time?
