honda front breaks

[bryan sandlin]

I have a 1998 Honda that needs front breaks. could not get the hub of after about a hour of pounding, hitting, screw drivers, all the things that I used to remove break hubs in the past. home made press. that's why I have a welder. trust me, it took about 200 pounds pressure to get this to snap off. the bearing was a solid rust ring.

Did you back the brake adjustment off before trying to remove?

[bryan sandlin]

could not get to that. bought it this way. setting up for about three years. after setting in water for one of them I think. the right side was easy.

here is even the better part of the rebuild. sorry about the out of focus pics. piston, head and valves are gone.

It's hard to keep brakes on a honda

Talk about rode hard & put up wet!

Man that is some carnage!

I had a 91 with those type brakes. I took them off and put disc brakes on it. Haven't looked back since...

Might need to borrow that puller. I have a 2000 that squeaks when it warms up.
