help to install rear rotors (brembo)

i'm trying to figure out how to remove the rear rotors.

I removed brake caliper & have hand brake off. Anything else? Since the rotors refuse to leave.

Thanks!

make sure you do not leave the parking brake on...

and if they don't come out, use a rubber mallet and knock them out...

If rubber mallets don't work, you may need a heavier hammer. Turn the rotor as you hit it from the back.

The Brembo and non-Brembo calipers and rotors go on and off the same way, but not by using a big nut in the middle. Two bolts hold each caliper and the rotors are held on the hub by the wheel and lug nuts (and the caliper keeps it from coming all the way off). Sometimes rust will cause older rotors to be resistant to removal from the hub.
