How do i get the rotors off a 1996 chevy caprice?

I am in the middle of changing the brakes on a 1996 chevy caprice. It is my grandmas car and the brakes have never been changed in the 10 years she has has the car. the rotors are pretty much stuck on and i have no idea how to get them off. do i have to remove a bolt or something?How do i get the rotors off a 1996 chevy caprice?
Grease cap, cotter pin needs to be removed. Large nut on spindle needs to be removed. It would be best to buy a cheap manual if your going to do the job yourself. If you doubt your ability to do this job, then do NOT.



The entire wheel with rotor could fall off if you make a mistake when reinstalling the rotor. Better safe than sorry.How do i get the rotors off a 1996 chevy caprice?
1)remove the caliper

2) remove the dust cap in the center of the rotor.

3) take out the cotter pin

4) unscrew the hex nut and pull out the outer wheel bearing

5) after that pull the rotor and hub assy off the spindle

6)Then remove the inner brg and seal

7) turn or replace rotor and reverse the procedure.........md
