Propane torch....heat 'em up and wail on them too. Took me and a friend 9 hours to do my brakes recently due to the fact we couldn't get the old discs off.
Good luck.
This is a good idea and often works when nothing else seems to. Be careful with the heat though. If you overheat the bearings you will melt of the lubricant and most certainly have bearing failure. Try to keep the heet to about what you would get with heavy breaking and don't keep it up over an extended period of time. Don't use a welding torch.
