removing rotors

I am trying to remove the rear rotors to either have them machined or replace them but I can not get them off. I have taken off the caliper and am not sure if they are just rusted on or if there are any other clips or bolts that I need to remove. Any advice would be great. Thanks.

Never had the rear rotors off, but it should be the same as the front. Take the caliper off and pull the rotor off the wheel studs. It might be rusted on like you said. I'd take a dead-blow hammer and tap on the back side of the rotor and see if it breaks loose. It shouldn't require much and with a nylon dead-blow hammer, you won't cause any damage.

make sure they dont have screws on the hib holding the rotor in place. those often get seized. if you try the hammer, and that doesnt work, you might have to pry them off. they should have two empty threaded holes in the rotor that you put screws into and slowly tighten down until it comes off. There is a good chance you will crack the rotor however.
