Stuck Front Rotors

read a lot of methods to remove stuck /rusted rotors on this web site,
this worked for me on 2003 expodition.
after removeing the brake caliper and the two bolts that hold the bracket,
i put a half inch bolt thru each of the bolt holes with a washer and nut,
tightened the nut down against the bracket a little at a time putting force on rotor, tap with hammer
turned rotor 180 and repeted tighting nuts on half inch bolts a little at a time
rotors poped right off .only turned the nuts a little at a time didnt want to break the bracket.
read about this earlier this year on a help website , hope it helps you
thanks

Welcome ezmonee, it`s great to have you on board.
Thanks for the good advice but it needs to be re posted in the Expedition & Navigator forum: https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum27/ This forum doesn`t get tech traffic, it`s used for intros and announcements only.
Swing by your local CA chapter soon:https://www.ford-trucks.com/forums/forum163/ and be sure to fill in the ''location'' field in your profile.
