Default Need help on replacing rotors on my 92.

I have a 92 s10 blazer,VIN W,2wd,abs.


Im not familiar on how these come off etc. I thought they would be like my 91 4wd,pop caliper off,rotor slides off etc...but these are different. From what ive read from autozone etc i have to do more then just pop the nut off and replace. Something about bearings? I have yet to do something like that...Im not sure if its going to be a easy job or not. Any write ups etc? thanks

It's not too bad, just start pulling bolts it'll fall apart and put it back together the same way.
Just becarefull with how tight the bearing nut is, it has a prelead on it, mark it or something and try and put it back on the same tightness. these generally are not that tight, but I don't know the spec.
there is a seal and some bearings in there take them out and grease the bearings put them in new rotor along with the seal, I usually replace these seals, and check the bearings for any pitting at this time and change if necessary
