front brake rotor

84 F250 4x4 351w, will the front brake rotors come off the hubs, it looks like it does. But it does not want to.

Did you remove the hub/rotor from the truck?
Did you remove the 8 wheel studs?
Did you hit the rotor to unlodge it from the hub?

Hub/Rotor is on bench. Did not know about removing studs. Do I just press them out?

Unless the f250 is different than most, yes they are pressed in. I've always just used some pb blaster with a lug nut screwed on the stud and drive it out.

I just hit the stud squarely with a large hammer, pops them right out. Do the same to install them
