it's on a ford 8.8 so far I've soaked it in WD40, hammer'd, chisel'd, torched, pryed, etc. and the sucker is still frozen/rusted to the hub/axle shaft

problem with that is in the rust belt the threads rust in the holes. Tried it with my Escort once, rusty threads just came out of the hole and the rotor went no where.Thayer said:Not a solution to your prob, but I noticed this past weekend on my GF's Nissan Sentra that their rotors have 2 threaded holes where you can screw in a bolt to push against the axle to pop the rotor off if it's stuck. I was afraid to wail on her rotors with a hammer, so I looked in my box of bolts and actually had the right size. They came off easily. All rotors should have that feature.
Yeah, I was thinking the same while doing that. Her rotors had spent the last 2-3 years in upstate NY and the threads looked pretty bad. The bolt held though...lucky me.87manche said:problem with that is in the rust belt the threads rust in the holes.

Commence with whacking.
