Installing 1986-1993 Volvo 240 Front Brake Rotors
Replacing the front brake rotors.
- Author: Brett Hartt
- Difficulty: Moderate
This guide will show you how to remove and replace the front brake rotors on the '86-'93 Volvo 240.
Whenever working on brakes, it is a good idea to keep one side assembled to use as a reference. Never drive a car that has only had its brakes on one side changed, as this will cause the car to pull to one side when braking.

-
Jack up the front of the car and place it on jack stands.
-
Never work on or underneath a car that is only supported by a jack. The jack may slip or fail, resulting in serious injury or even death.
-
-
Use an impact wrench or lug wrench to remove the five 19 mm lug nuts from the front wheel.
-
The wheel lug nuts should be torqued to 85 ft-lbs when the wheels are put back on the car.

Pull the front wheel off the wheel lugs and set it aside.
