If your tossing it for an upgrade smack it real good with a small sledge. If you plan on keeping it, smack it real good with a plastic sledge.

Ditto. There is basically a drum brake on the inside of the rotor and if that is still grabbing, it's not going anywhere.

yea the rear rotors are absolute hell to get off. I think I used a hammer and a screw driver to get it off. You could also stick a screw in that hole and try and drill it off with a impact wrench
