Hello ,my question is I need to put new rotors on my 1993 2 wheel
drive F150,and i want to do it myself,i would like to know is it difficult to do .Does it involve messing with the wheel bearings,should i replace the bearings? I always do my own brakes,but this is a first for me . Thank you

piece of cake
it should be no problem and i would replace the bearings unless they have been done recently. The back one is held in with a race also replace this.

when replacing the rotors clean the wheel bearings for damage or cage being crack if not then repack the bearings and replace the grease seals and alway use a new cotter pin
push back the piston in the caliper with a c clamp check for rips in the dust cover on the calipers too
lube the caliper pins and rails ( where the pads sit on the anchor ) its easy job do one side at a time so you can go back and check for any mistakes
good luck
