Subject: Re: Syncro front rotor change question
Content-type: text/plain
I will second Erics thoughts....when I had my syncro one of the rotors
came off because we pounded it in half. They were very very rusted
on..I'd say take it as it goes and hope for the best but know they could
be very rusted on especially if the p.o. never took them off for
anything.
