Can anyone tell me how to remove rear brake hubs (rotors) on an AU11 2000. I have removed the calipres and retaining screw. Do the the hubs now just belt off? Thanks in advance.

They often get stuck of the hand braking shoes.
Release the hand brake.

Plenty of WD40 or the like around the axle & rotor, & wait for a couple of hours, they weld themselfs to the axle, & you will have to bash them off, with a bug rubber mallet, of a block of wood & a lump hammer.. ***** of a job..

The disc rotors have rusted on. Thump them with a hammer, but be careful to not hit and damage the threads on the wheel studs.
I couldn't get the rear discs off my Tornado a few months ago. I ended up winding the brake caliper bolts through their respective threads until they pushed the disc rotors off. http://www.fordforums.com.au/showthr...53#post5278853
