Rotor stuck to hub

[1QUICK4]

Considering I did that with a 4 lb maul for about an hour and it didn't move, I don't think that is going to work.

You might have to beat them untill they break but they will come off.

Are you beating on the face of the rotor?

Wow, I can't say I've ever had to take a hub off either. If you're replacing the rotor, there's no need to worry about messing it up beating it with a hammer. From what i can see in your pics, you either didn't hit it enough, or didn't hit it hard enough

The key is a hard smack. You can beat the shit out of it at 1/2 power all day long, but a couple big ass smacks and they usually pop right off. You need mo powa! Or just cheat and use the bolts :D

[hippiekiller]

Power is not the issue. I am not small nor a weakling. And I was beating the shit out of it. So I am going to try the bolts.

I thought I was supposed to smack the windshield?

Just beat them off with a hammer. Make sure it's at least a larger deadblow hammer


:wank::rollinglaugh:

Are you beating the shit out of both sides? And turn the rotor every now and then.

My rotors were STUCK. They were cracked, and chunks missing by the time I got them off, and the pad surfaces were so f***ed from being hit.

Good luck with thos. Mine was stuck and I beat on it with a hammer and the wheel bearing broke apart so that might be your only option.

[hippiekiller]

Sleepy, yes both sides and turning it.

The bolt option seems like the best thing right now. I'll have to give it a shot tomorrow. And take some pics.

I meant are you hitting it on the front hub face inbetween the studs. And not just the pad contact area smartass. ;)
