Default Changing rotors

Well I'm going to be replacing my front rotors pretty soon. I'm just wondering how they come off. I haven't really looked at them that close so I'm not 100% sure. I have a dually if that makes a difference on how the rotors are attached.

Adaptor is held on with the inner studs, once those are off its just like a normal setup. remove the caliper and anchor then the rotor itself.

well i've done rotors on the OBS. but that's a different hub setup. do the rotors just sit on the studs for the unit bearing?

55 for pads and 105 each for the rotors. Napa wanted 140 each for rotors. The parts guy said that ford is coming down with prices to compete with the parts houses
