i got a Ford 8.8 out of an explorer and am teraing it down to put in my TJ. I removed the drivers side caliper and disc, but on the pass. side i couldnt remove the disc. How do you think i could get this off, i have whacked it a bunch with a deadblow hammer, but it wont budge. Any ideas?

i work on a lot of lincoln rear axles and the way they are set up is theres emergency brakes in the middle of the disk brakes, theres a little rubber access hole that you can stick a screwdriver in and move the adjuster to move the pads inward, sometimes those are what keeps those rotors on
