Trying to change the rotors on the front of my 81 f-250 4 x 4. I'm having no luck getting them off. What am I doing wrong? does this job require special tools?
This is a Ford tag the Dana tags are longer...Dave ,there are several different sockets used in removing the rotor hub
assembly. i need to know what differential you have to narrow it down to
the one you will need.look on the differential cover for an ID tag.
Chilton copied Haynes' Anglican terminology? :/Haynes & Chiltons refer to the tool as a spanner wrench.
sigh...i already looked it up when i posted the tool numbers above, the
tools will fit 1980-96 F250-350 4x4 trucks not Broncos. they require
another tool.according to DaveMT his truck is a F250 4x4. big difference.
Cool, thanks for that, Dave.Ok Alvin your entitiled to your opinion.
Sears has got 'em but maybe all stores don't have them in stock? :/i even have to agree with your term "spindle nut socket" if your working on
vehicles of recent years.you wont find the spanner wrench tools at Sears..lol
try Napa,Snap On,Mac Tools. its a specialty item.
In the Haynes service manuals they don't have the "English vs American" listthe Haynes manual has the op for all the different differentials ford put into
the vehicles.it never steered me wrong & ive been working on cars over 30
years specializing in classic vehicles.my Haynes manuals reflect on the 73-79
f series & broncos trucks,80-96 f series & bronco based on a American
vehicle tear down.theres nothing about England in my manuals.lol
o well we can go on for days.just tryin to help Dave.
Yeah on FSB there's a guy that buggered up his spindle's threads by using aim sure someone has removed the locknuts with improper tools...
thats their choice.Bob
