Yea man, I have had to break one or two of them that i have done. They can get seized pretty tight. A new one isnt too much. If it doesnt come out by wiggling it, you may have to do this. Try tapping around on it with a brass punch ,or somthing soft.But be careful!

Break the little tabs off with a hammer or plyers. Then you can slide the insulator and cover off the front. (you will really tear up the seal). With it all off, You can tap on it lightly sideways to work it free.You can get a better hold on it with all that stuff out of the way. Put some anti seive on the new one!-Make sure you have a new one first! There are 2 different styles.

I bought a can of CRC Freeze Off. Try that on the rotor drive. Mine came out but it was tight. Yours may have some rust.

OK, this is how I did it: Those are just strips of aluminum underneath the screws taken from the rotor.
