Default Rear Rotor Removal

All,

I need to work on the e-brakes on an '04 F150. For the life of me I cannot remove the rear rotor to access the e-brakes. How do you remove the rear rotor?

The ebrake has probably worn itself in the inner hub surface causing a ridge on the hub that is catching on the pads. You need to compress the ebrake pads back in then the disc will slide off.

In the bake there could a small opening where you can put a flathead screwdriver in and adjust parking brake shoes down, but I would just use a good size hammer and hit left side then right side and so forth, dont hit surface where the pads sit, try not to hit a wheel stud either
