I am trying to replace my rotors and pads on the rear. The rotors seem to be stuck on and I cannot remove them. Does anyone have any suggestions??

Did you release the parking brake? You would be surprised how many times people forget.
If they are still stuck, try striking the old rotor with a brass drift around the bore that fits over the boss on the hub. That usually breaks them free for me. |

the centre of those rotors will be rusted at the axle.take a big hammer and hit the rotor HARD around the wheel lug holes several times.you will see it let go.

Or use a 8" puller. A 6" one will get by in the rear.
