i had the same problem with mine, it does come off! what i did was got a big hammer and i stuck the axle in a vice with the rotor hub against the top of it i didnt tight the axle in the vice just used it as somethin to hold the hub while i hit out the axle. I heated the hub with a torch but you gotta be careful not to mess up the hub. It took alot of patience and musle but i got it off. another way is to use a press to press it off cause thats how its put on but you need a press and not everyone has one of them, that would be the easy way. Hope this helps a little i no its a pain in the butt

Yes it will come off it is just seized:confused: . If possible use a press to remove it constant pressure will work better than a hammer but some time a hammer is your only choice. Try using a piece of hard wood between what you are hitting and the hammer to keep the hammer from damaging anything.
