Ford WindstarIntroduced in the mid-1990s, the front-wheel-drive Ford Windstar minivan campaigned with an emphasis on, and reputation for, safety. And in the hotly contested family minivan market of the time, that was an especially solid piece of ground to be on. As long as buyers didn't need to haul adults in back on a regular basis, the Windstar served a family's needs just fine.
i replaced the front driver side wheel bearing this weekend. however the screws that hold the rotor to the hub were a different thread and i left them off. how important are these? all the other cars i have ever owned didn't have these screws.
I am trying to remove the wheel hub on the front drivers side on my 2000 windsta and see that you have the experience. i have everything off but can not seem to get the wheel hub loose. any help you can give would be appreciated.
I believe you are talking about the torx screws on the rotors
I changed my rotors a while back and I purchased them from my ford dealer and they gave my rotors that did not have the screw holes in them, they said these new ford rotors got rid of those torx screws and so I guess you dont need them. It has been a year and have seen no difference with or without screws.
As for you SMS
I haven't pulled off my wheel hubs but I believe you need a special wheel hub tool to remove them.
