Hello again,

No. I have never worked on a Saab, but I have taken many rotors of a variety of vehicles and it has always been easy and straight forward, The best advise I could give you is to have a bungee cord handy so you can use it to suspend the brake caliper from it. If not the caliper will be hanging from the brake line.

Thanks,
Alex
