Cutrara Says: Don't let your rotors get this bad, Pics inside Options

Calipers and caliper mounting brackets are off, I even removed the codder pin and big 32mm Axle nut. I have been beating the **** out of these rotors and they still wont come off. This is just rust, right? I'm not forgetting anything am I? How do I break through the rust? I doused them with WD-40.

Thanks


Edit: Pics are down more

I decided to clean up a rotor, because they make neat clocks and such, so I decided to clean them all up and take a few pics. And yes, sometimes I use my bathtub to clean parts.




Passenger's side Rotor, front. Notice how it's scorched


Pass side rear


This is the passengers side pad, for the backside of the rotor. Yes, it has NO material left, All other pads were within spec, this one probably chipped up and broke off.




The new rotors and pads work great. They still need to break in a bit, (the car doesn't roll like it used to) but everything works fine. There's no squeaks either, mainly because I used lots of anti-squeal. In fact, I used too much anti-squeal and it was burning off the whole time I was driving. When I came home this morning, I looked at the caliper. It was literally on fire, flames were burning off all the anti-squeal. I guess I learned my lesson.
