i recently noticed that both of my rear brakes are all rusted. not on the calipers, or the roters, or the pads, but on the hub that protrudes to where the wheel attatches. i wonder if i could sand it down to remove the rust and apply some type of sealant so it doesnt rust and instead looks nice and shiny like the wheels that i keep cleaning. any advice is greatly appreciated

The rust forms pretty quickly there - hell, I see rust begin to form on the rotors in the morning if it rained overnight.

The rotor will get extremely hot due to the contant contact of the pads. You'll need a high temperature paint because of this. I would think automotive engine paint would be good place to start. A salesperson at an autoparts supply store can probnably point you in the right direction if unsure. Of course, don't spray them when hot.

I don't recall the name of the company, but you can purchase a caliper paint that should work on the drum portion of your rear brakes. As stevecon noted, ensure that the paint is high temp.

Well i would also suggest you to get a good caliper paint on your breaks's drum portion

Last thing we wanted to do tonight was try to get the hub off on this passenger side. Last week (When we attempted the swap without a hub puller) same thing happened on this side, axle wont budge. Sprayed PB all over it, have been goin at it with slide hammer (attached in pic). I'm gona pass out now (4:41am) but tomorow morning I'm gona go at that slide hammer again. If for some reason it won't budge I think the plan is to release the axle from the diff, unbolt balljoint and take entire assembly (axle, shield, hub) on the ground and try to put some bolts halfway in and bang it out. But I have a feeling that isn't going to work for me, so I might have to run it out to a shop and see if they can work some press magic.

With some cars removing the rotor is as simple as sliding it off the hub assembly once the caliper is removed. Just be sure to mark the rotor in relation to the hub so it can be reinstalled in its original position. Other vehicles may have the rotor and hub incorporated into one part. This is more common on RWD trucks, vans and some older RWD cars. To remove this type of rotor, remove the grease cap, cotter pin, nut, washer and outer bearing from the spindle, and then slide the rotor off.

These caps are simply pressed on. The way I remove them is to take a very large set of Channellock pliers (with at least 12 inch handles) and grab the cap top and bottom with the tool. Then rock the cap up and down until it comes loose. You don’t need to squeeze hard enough to mar the cap, just hold it and wiggle it up and down, it will slowly work its way off.

By the way, this is what is properly called a “hub cap”. The large disks that cover the whole wheel are properly called “wheel covers”, not “hub caps”. You can win a bet with that fact next time you’re in a bar!
