Mine are fused to the rotors and I am looking to install my big brake kit soon.

Cant remember much from my rotor install attempt but I do remember that my rotors were also fused to whatever is behind it. I threaded a bolt in through the back and hammered it in order to separate the rotor. I dont have a massive prybar that some guys use in order to separate the rotors but working your way around with a bolt is a lot less work (if im being clear)

Let it soak in Blaster or just plain CocaCola for a couple days first, and it makes it easier.

Of course, buying others is the easiest. 8)

In case someone else is trying to do this, atlantic Z shows (what I think is)the easiest process in the front wheel bearing guide
http://www.atlanticz.ca/zclub/techtips/ ... index.html

Thread a bolt through and use a hammer!
