There is a lock screw in the face of each rotor - some are hex (allen) and some are torx, depending on your car. Be careful with them, they are kind of soft...you can see it in this pic: https://www.crossfireforum.org/galle.../47751/cat/500

Also, the emergency hand brake must be released to remove the rear rotors.

YEah, if the screw is out, the onl trick is a HAMMER.

Took Tazz and me a while to get one rear rotor down because of rust, so we used a hammer and a PVC tube extension.

Thanks for the picture - I copied it for my files if thats ok. I didn't know that ( set screw ) about the rotors. Handy when I have to change mine. Fronts not that way?
