When I come across a stuck rotor that won't come of with a reasonable amount of beating, I cut the rotor in half with a die grinder and cutting wheel, then use a cold chisel to split the rotor in half.
PS - I know what I'm talking about, I'm a bearing engineer.
Any sign of failure? So far, everything on the car is great... brakes are awesome again, no rattles or creaks, everything is as it was before... with good brakes.
I didn't have any anti-sieze, so I used wheel bearing grease, I should be at least a little better off than before. Anyway, I would have cut them off with the small exception that I don't have a die grinder, so that wasn't an option without a flat bed tow to a shop, in which case, I should have just had them do it in the first place.
