alright so i thought hey, my rotors need to be turned and my parking brake is flat not working, so i thought id pull the rotor. ha. showed me. the things wont budge. am i fighting that much rust or am i forgetting to pull something? current state: on jacks, with calipers removed and e-brake cable removed.

edit: ps and they still sit attached after beating on them with a bfh.....

hit the rotor around the wheel studs. It should knock it lose.
 






i did, the one side is loose, like its hung up. other has been sitting it pb blaster. are the axle center caps suppossed to come off or should it just slide over? thanks
 






never mind got em. holy hell a lotta hammering. only to find to completely obliterated parking shoes lol. mods can delete or leave for future reference.
 






I speak from experience. You will need to rent a 3 jaw puller with a min 12" spread. The rust builds up so bad around the rotor & axle hub so bad it's not funny.
