i need some help. i need to take off the brake rotor.
i removed the wheel, took of the brake caliper, took of the center spindle, the little skrew on the rotor itself and it still wont come off. i dont know if i would halfto remove the whole axle or something. if you could please give me some info on how i would be able to remove the rotor... anyone? please.

Once you swing the caliper out of the way and remove the 2 screws in the center of the rotor, it should come right off. It's probably rusted on so try hitting it with a rubber mallet.
