Better Hope your Brakes Don't look like this! Farm Vlog brakes gone bad!

What happens here

Unpack the new brake rotor, being careful not to touch the braking surface with bare hands or oily gloves. Use brake parts cleaner to thoroughly clean any factory oils or contaminants from the new rotor's surface. Slide the new rotor onto the wheel hub. Secure it temporarily with one lug nut to keep it from wobbling while you work.

Goal: Mount the new rotor onto the wheel hub.
