front brake rotor removal
Hi, i am currently trying to remove one of my front brake rotors to replace wheel bearings.
I have all parts off(caliper, locking hub etc) all the way down to the outer bearing.
my rotor is now totally loose but just won't slide off
i am in australia and mu 4runner is an australian delivered model LN 130 1990, IFS and coil rear.
any help would be appreciated

Once the 6 hex bolts on the backside are off, its just a tight fit holding it on.. there is proly a ring of rust between the hub and rotor holding it in place.. its time to break out the BFH

Ok thanks.
got the rotor off with a little persuasion!
My next problem is that the inner bearing stuck to the axle! it spins but i can't seem to get it to slide off. any ideas?
as soon as i get it back together i'll definately post some pics. this is my first 4wd and i just love it.
