Front Brake Help
I am replacing the front brake rotors and pads on my 97 F150 4X4. I have been told by the local ford dealership that the rotors just come off after you remove the caliper mount. I have removed the caliper mount and the rotors do not seem to want to be removed. Any idea what I can try next to remove the rotors, or is there a hub that needs to be removed first.
Any help with this would be helpful.

No I do have a seperate rotor and hub assembly. What ended up working for me is a large 3 arm pully. I used the impact wrench with the pully and the air impact was about to stop POP whent the rotor.
Thanks for your help.

American ingenuity.... Get a bigger hammer... I just did my '00 yesterday.. Soak the thing with wd-40, then get a dead blow hammer or a big rubber mallet... it'll come off... no hubs to remove.
