    ROH rotor removal trouble.

    Hi.. SO I have the ROH conversion on my 90 Ex.
    First problem is for the life of me I cannot get the rotor off.. It did have those two screws in the rotor holding it to the hub. Those where seized in so I drilled them out.. nothing/.

    Im taking off the rotors so I can change my bearings...SO I figure hell just take off the rotor/hub and bearing all in one peice.. So I unbolt the bearing and still the stupid things is stuck on the car.. I have been banging the shiz out of them and the bearing/hub/rotor wont pop off the car. ...

    Why in the world would it be seized on so badly????

    anyone have any tips?

    Thanks

      well to answer one question would be to yes, keep banging the SHIT outta it, i hadda drill out and sledge hammer my wifes rotors on her 2.3CL just to get the old POS rotors off, answer to second question as to why they would be seized on so bad is that these components see A LOT of heat cycling, cold one minute, then you get in and go ripping around hauling down a 3000 pound car, alot of heat gets generated. the explansion and contaction in conjunction with the corrosive brake dust and moisture from rain and shit make it the perfect pain in the ass.

          what you do is get the car in the air, put the car in neutral the go down and BANG BANG BANG on the back of the rotor, turn rotor about 1/4 turn BANG BANG BANG 1/4 turn and so on until it comes off, just banging in the same spot over and over itwont help much if any
