I cant remove the rotor from the wheel hub.
This is the worst brake job i have ever done, I am so frustrated and this is making it even worse.
Just when i thought i was in the clear i cant seem to seperate the rotor from the hub.
I have had a torch on it and a big hammer. it will not come apart.
Is it possible i have a funny year of truck that has one peice hub/rotor combination?
the truck is a 91 sr5 v6 auto (manufacture date is late 1990)

Have you removed the wheel studs? May need to have them pressed out if a hammer won't do the job:

i searched and know exactly what i am doing but it didnt want to budge.
I finally got it out of there i had to wedge a 4' pry bar between the rotor and the hub (behind the wheel studs) and pry like a mother.
she is off now.
thanks for the quick replies!
Now to bleed the brakes.. .which sound like a major pain in the ass from the other posts i have read

Longest to shortest brake line then proportioning valve
LR,RR,RF,LF,LSPV
Flare nut wrenches if you have em', if not you should get some.
Also it is a good idea to put a piece of wood under the brake pedal and only run it though it's normal travel when bleeding brakes.
