rear brake

[nascar_fan28]

how do you remove brake caliper.. i un did the 2 big bolts this is for rear.. but do i have to compress the brake so it will slide off rotor? and whats best way to do that, for some reason my parking brake is locked on right rear tire.. cant hardly turn wheel by hand... so im trying to take it apart and see whats going on inside

srw.. i got it off.. just needed pry bar.. but couldnt get the hub off.. will rotor just slide off? im sure its rusted on good..

on the SRW rears the rotor is
like the front (and most cars).

ive never noticed if theres a
threaded bolt hole on our ford
rotors...cars have 'em...thread
in some bolts and itll pop the
rotor off.

the rotor on the truck is probably
RUSTED and "frozen" on the hub.

a few light taps w/ a hammer should
brake it loose.
