Ok I just got done drilling off those 2 damn stripped screws and removed the caliper from the rotor. Now I'm having problems removing the rotor. Is there something I'm forgetting? Any help appreciated.

P.S. I tried searching and all I got was problems with stripped screws

 

try tapping the rotor with a hammer if you are goign to resurface it. if you are planning to replace it, just use a BFH!

 

a rubber mallot would be more preferable, just have to force things sometimes

 

As the others have said just tap it a few times with a hammer while turning/spinning the rotor to loosen it up.

yea. earlier I was wacking at it like crazy and no avail... stopped came on here posted and finished this episode of Overhaulin then went back to wacking and it finally came loose. guess that episode of Overhaulin helped Thanks for the help again guys! HT to the rescue!

 

There are threaded holes for you use to use a M8 or M10x1.25 bolt to wedge the rotor off of the hub.

Before you reinstall the new rotor, you're supposed to deburr the face of the hub so that the rotor sits square on the hub. It's a standard brake job procedure.

 

You can stick two bolts into the other holes and slowly work it off.

Even better, there are 2 threaded holes in the rotor, just thread two bolts into the holes and wedge the rotor off the hub.
