Help Removing rotors.
ok so im workin on the brakes today.. right now..
i need help removing the rear rotors. how do i do it?
Ive removed the pistol/caliper and rest it on a bucket.. Removed the pads + spring.. n removed the rest of the caliper..
looked at the rotor and theres nothing holding it on the car.. removed the ruber plug thing too..
so yea.. its pretty rusted.. so how do i take it off? i used a hammer and wacked it but its still stuck..

There should be 2 small holes on the hub part. Find a screw that will fit in and begin to screw them in uniformly, this should slowly push the rotor out. Sorry, my terminology isn't the greatest.
