Is the rear rotor held on to the hub by these two screws at this point?
I have Soaked/Heated/Hammered but the screws aren't budging. Am I missing something here??? My guess is they are rusted in place... I have a torch with a rosebud tip, didn't heat the rotor to red thinking that I could possibly warp the rotor...so I just went close to red... Do I have to drill these and then tap them out? Thank You, Cass |

Put a punch which is about the same size as the recessed hole and hit very hard with a hammer,then use an impact wrench the fits the slot properly,if this fails center punch (dead centre) the screws and drill them till the heads are gone.
Once the disk is off the remains of the screws should wind out with ease,good luck. |
