1. Remove the old bushings by pressing them out of the rotor. It is not unusual for the bushings to crack or break apart
during removal.
2. Inspect the rotor bore for any damage. Any small scratches or nicks must be filed smooth before installing the new
bushings.
3. Press the front radial bushing into the rotor, leading with the tapered edge. The bushing is in its proper location when the
front face of the bushing is flush with the nearest rotor face.
