Again - per SAI when I talked with them and my mechanic talked with them - they gave us the protocol (including the need for a press) and told us it was a PITA. Then, the upright had to be re-machined because the bolts had come loose - discovered that ALL the bolts were loose on BOTH sides.
Why have you had to take your rotor off? How many miles do you have? You also stated on the first page that your rotor just slipped off like a typical car (probably like the many cars I have owned / worked on - including the 8 that I own right now) which is NOT the case with my cobra. You also stated that you thought that your spindle / hub assembly is different than mine. The 4700s that were built from the ground up in Las Vegas (I think between the time they shut down in South Africa and the time they started up at HST) were more like the original 4000 series - which came with a more original spindle / hub. Can you post a picture of what you have since I have posted several of what I have over the last 11 pages? As far as loose fasteners, there re loose ones all over my car - not just in the suspension.
