I just got a solid axle and I am in the process of tearing it down. I have the hub off and I am having difficulty getting the disc rotor off. The FSM and a few write ups suggest the disc rotor should just "pull right off." However, this is not the case with mine. Should I persuade it with a BFH?? Or, am I missing a bolt or what
thanks

should come right off. persuasion maybe needed if its been on there for along time. all that heat from brakes cause metal to do funny things. large heavy object to the edge like your hitting it from the side should break it free.

Rotor is bolted to the wheel hub with the wheel studs pressed through. The whole wheel hub just slides right off the spindle. Use a rubber mallet to persuade it so as not to damage the other components. Wheel bearing might be seized to the spindle...who knows if it has been sitting a while.

You did take the spindle nuts off with the 54mm socket, right?

i know its not the same axle and whatnot but mine was on there pretty good. a thick pad a BFH made it come right off
