You dont need to remove the hub nut to get the disks off. All you nee to do is unbolt the caliper from the hub. Remove the disk, on with the new one. Push bach caliper piston to allow for the thickness of new disk. Reinstall caliper and on with your wheel.

Forgot to say once you have the caliper andbracket off. Hit the disk a slap of a hammer from behind and it should fall off.
