Anyone have an idea on how to remove the rear rotor? The studs broke off inside, have to replace them but the rotor wont come off.

Yea I made sure I did that, the guy at the shop gave me a can of WD40 and told me to spray it and let it sit for about 15-20 mintues and it should pop off.

I was going to try to torch method but i'm not a professional just yet //content.invisioncic.com/y282845/emoticons/wink.gif.608e3ea05f1a9f98611af0861652f8fb.gif

Thanks for the ideas so far.

you will need to undo the tension on the emergange brake pads. They wear a groove on the inside of the rotor, so you will need a small screw driver to turn the little wheel that adjusts them. Its usually on the back side bottom maybe hind a small rubber grommit.
