Is There A Tool For This Process Or Do I Need To Heat It With A Torch? Are The Front Rotors Just As Difficult? Is There A Different Procedure For Those?

Help????
Did you have the emergency brake on? If so you'll never get the rear rotor off because the rear emergency brake is a drum type brake. Release the emergency brake and remove the two hold-down bolts and the rotor should come right off with a little persuasion.
