Thanks for all the great suggestions. I decided to punch the two sleeve centering pins through the rotor before giving it a whack. Unable to find my hand sledge I used my splitting mall [the fat side] with short swings to the rotor as it spun around. The rotor finally broke free and I felt so good about that I did the other side. More heat and penetrating oil and a lot of stress filled swings with the maul finished the other side. I spent the rest of the day installing new rotors and brake pads. Hopefully I didn't break anything in the suspension and I will check the wheel bearings. I'm not looking forward to doing the back brakes.
