      Is there a video demostrating how to change front disc brakes when the rotors have a bearing attached to them. i.e. 96 Dodge Ram RWD, the hub and bearings are part of the rotors. I know you have videos showing Front Disc brakes but those did not appear to have the hub and bearing being part of the rotor.

        The procedures are similar, just a few added steps to remove the hub cap, cotter pin, retainer, axle nut, washer, and outer bearing. Those parts hold the rotor on to the spindle. The inner bearing and race is inside the rotor and is held captive by an oil seal. Once the rotor is removed, it can be resurfaced or further disassembled to replace any parts needed, such as new bearing and bearing races pressed in, new oil seal installed, new wheel studs, etc. Here is a video I found on YouTube that details the procedure.
