    99 Blazer Brakes

    I just bought a 99 4x4 blazer and I am trying to change the rear disk
    brakes and have the disk turned. I got the calliper off as well as the
    bracket that holds the pads in but I can't get the disk off. Is there
    something that I missed? I have already done the front brakes as well
    as the 4 ball joints.

    Thanks
    Scott

    The parking brake is a 'drum style' machined into the rotor 'hat'. You've
    got to back off the parking brake shoe, and then give it a try. Plan on
    replacing the parking brake shoes also. If the rotor is rusted to the hub,
    give it a couple good raps with a hammer to break it loose.

    Scott,

    You need a BFH. (Big Fucking Hammer). Just kidding. It will take some
    force to remove those rotors. They build-up a rust ridge that prevents the
    removal.
