Rotor won't come off!
I am in the process of replacing the right front U-Joint on my 2500 Cummins. We got the freakin castle nut off the axle(which was a son of a gun!) and now the rotor will not budge. We have tried PB Blaster and a deadblow hammer but I am trying not to ruin the rotor by pounding on it! I didnt want to have to get a new one. Any more suggestions?

There's a socket trick, you put it behind the hub, on a bolt then use the power steering of the truck to push it out. It's somewhere around here. Jake discovered it here. Infidel documented it:

As you will see in the above link, once the bolts are loose, you use a socket and extension, pushing on the loosened bolt, to force the bearing out.
