Thank you I had to use a heavy hammer to remove my rotors; the rotors did not budge with a rubber mallet. The rotors were rusted on the inside and stuck to the bearing assembly. As someone has mentioned, when installing a new rotor, put some anti-sieze on the inside where it comes in contact with the bearing assembly. I did not do that; I saw the post later :( |

I have seen more than a few Jeeps rims destroyed this way.
