Post A blow torch and a sledge

That's what it took to remove the rotors on my '97 F150. Fortunately I read this message board first and was warned about this. My brother called his friend and he let us use his garage for a couple hours. We almost couldn't get the driver side rotor off. We spent double the time on that one with the blow torch and sledge and finally it just cracked in two.

I used two tubes of anti-seize on the new rotors. Every time I rotate my tires I'm going to reseat them. I never want to go through that again.

Thanks to everyone who contributed there experiences on this message board. It helped! Happy New Year!
