Front Brake Rotor removal

Hello, I have a '98 EB that needs brakes. I tried to get the front rotors off but they won't come off. It's a 4wd expi. They repair book says that the rotors will come off once the caliper and caliper bracket are removed. The book says the axle nut does not have to come off but it won't budge I have hit it with a hammer and used a propane torch to heat it but still nothing. Anyone have the same problem?

There have been a lot of threads about stuck rotors. I tried to search, but search is disabled. There is some kind of trick using a bolt.
Here is one thread that discussed stuck rotors:
