- 1). Slide the jack underneath the front axle. Lift up the front axle of the truck using the jack and set the axle down on the heavy-duty jack stands so that the front wheels are off of the ground. Unbolt the wheels using the tire iron and lift them off of the hubs.
- 2). Unbolt the brake caliper anchor plate from the backside of the steering knuckle using the ½-inch ratchet and socket. Carefully lift it off of the rotor and set it down onto a jack stand so the caliper's weight is supported completely.
- 3). Hold the face of the rotor with both hands. Pull the rotor straight off of the hub and away from the front axle.
