I really dont feel like tearing apart the brakes just yet because I have a broken wrist at the moment. I have been hitting the rotors daily for about a week with Penetrating oil and today tried to pull the FC with my truck. I did break loose one of the front wheels but the others are solid.

My truck pulled the FC for like 20 feet, I could have pulled her all day like that.

Ideas guys?

 

try throwing some dw-40 or those things that breaks rusted bolts loose on there and let it soak over night maybe that do something

 

Damn those are some stuck brakes! Throw some PB blaster on it and let it sit for a bit.

 

WD-40 does nothing.

PB Blaster is the ideal penetrating oil.

Try smacking the rotor with a hammer. Any play in the bearings will cause the rotor to lean slightly, which will break them free from the pads. This has always worked for me.

 

^Thank you sir!

I had been trying that ZEP **** and it didn't do anything. Im thinking about a 5 lug swap but cant find a write up anywhere

I though felixwankel did one but cant find it.

 

its super easy... you wont need a write up...

 

^LOL what do I need to pull from the donor car in the junkyard? Everything thats attached to the lugs?

 

pretty much...

front hubs: remove caliper, remove brake disc, remove hub dust cap: remove cotter pin, remove nut > front hub comes off car

rear hubs: remove brake parts, un-stake hub nut and remove (youll need a breaker bar and something to keep the hub from spinning), remove upper, lower, and DDTS bolts... next youll need a 2 prong gear puller to push the splined axle out of the hub (thats what i needed to do anyways)

the rear was the most difficult part... i ended up ruining the ddts bushings cause the bolts were seized to the sleeve... used a torch to fry the rubber out... then the bolts came out nicely...
