Question 96 4x4 frt rotor replacement ?

Noticed the other day my brakes were making noises so I pulled the wheels off & the rotor on the left is SHOT !! Am I going to need a special tool to get the front rotor off my 4x4 ??
1996 4x4 w/automatic hubs
Thanks in advance,
Scooter

Hi, Scooter...

Just went through this. The rotors on these are actually a hub/rotor assembly. Removing them would be a b**ch, so I took mine in. I tried to find a shop that would do them on the truck, but no go. I ended up at Schlep Boys and paid almost $300, which, for me also included a new wheel bearing and some seals and o-rings. Got the bad rotor turned, and now I'm a happy camper!!!
