front

try taping it with a dead blow hammer

 

[intmdtr]

are there any rotor retainers on it? if so you need to take them off.

 

[LitleWhiteSnake]

nope none at all

 

[LitleWhiteSnake]

iv hit it with the hammer and nada

Beat the shit out of it. Show it no mercy.

hes not kidding, you need a dead blow hammer and no regard for your rotor, the piece of shit gets rusted on their and likes to take a beating before it comes off

iv hit it hard lol idk if i should do it any harder lol but **** it will do

 

[my94pony]

make sure not to hit the studs and seriously use some force, i was afraid i was hitting mine too hard and it wouldnt come off so i had my buddy come over (he's a mechanic) and he used all his force without any regard lol
but hey 3 whacks like that and it came right off

beat the living shit out of it.......like it owes you money

I've used a hard rubber mallet, and it always works.

Get a 40 or 64 oz. hammer and like everybody else said beat the shizzle out of it. You can also turn the wheel in/out to get a better hitting angle on it.

+1 I had one on my wifes Escape the we broke the ring off and had to use a cutting torch to get the hub off. Good times:bored:

BFH, if that doesn't work get a bigger BFH.

Big ass mallet ftw! Show that rotor no mercy

 

[LitleWhiteSnake]

I prefer the impact chisel with stub nose bit hitting it on the hat. If that doesn't work, spray some PB Blaster into the lug nut holes and go work on the other side of the car. Having the car up on the lift at shoulder height also helps you get a really good swing at it too.
