remove caliper,tie up to spring to support hose,remove 5 torx 50 bolts through hub holes,remove 36mm hub nut,get block of wood and large hammer and hammer off disc and hub as a unit,the hub may be tight in the carrier,when off remove 5 13mm bolts holding disc on,you will need a good press to remove/fit bearing and rebuild in reverse
