[V6-12v] How to get the rear brake discs off

[Clive Young]

I did this not too long ago ,

Whack it from the inside, turn a little whack from the inside, turn a little 
and so on. I was lucky and managed to spray some penetrating oil where the 
hub meets the disk at the bolt holes, this is key. Once you do that and it 
startes running out the bottom you are on your way. just takes patience and 
a consideration that your disk is garbage anyway.

After removing disk use a dremmel or other device the clean the hub surface 
until shiny, or you will have run out, the disk has to fit perfectly flat. 
Then use the spray on copper antisieze and you won't have this problem 
again.

good luck . but you won't need it  you will be fine..

Clive
