first off questions are in reference to 1980 CJ5 I6 front power disc rear drum

:)

now the questions

Safe to assume the rotors have the wheel studs pressed on, so might be less of a headache buying new studs and install them in my new rotors?

My calipers are held on with two bolts. The upper bolt is going to be a PITA as the Previous owner replaced the brake lines. Are the brake lines suposed to be in the way of removing that bolt?

In otherwords there is no other way around it...I will have to remove the brake line from the caliper in order to get the upper bolt to remove the caliper. Just wondering if this is correct, and if not, what brake lines should I be using so I don't have to go through this everytime I change pads?

Now, just waiting for my rotors to come in....contemplate getting new hubs....will also replace the berings while I've got it all out too....
