Changing Brake Rotors

I have never changed brake rotors before. I need to replace my right front brake rotor. How difficult is it to change the rotor and about how long does it take from start to finish?

It's not difficult at all if you buy new inner and outer bearings and seals with the new rotor. Should'nt take more than an hour for a first timer.

FWIW - I'd change both sides if you have the $$

Read the sticky at the top of this board if you have'nt already.
