I had stuck rear rotors on my 03 RAM HEMI 1500 and was able to remove them by doing the following. Spray penetating oil in any wheel stud cracks, center hub, and behind the rotor where it meets the hub. Use the new rotors for reference.
Next, put a small 6mm or 7mm socket in the big caliper braket bolt holes. Put the caliper braket back in its stock location and screw in the caliper braket bolts, pushing the 6mm or 7mm socket's against the rotor using the guide holes which the caliper bracket bolts pass through. Torque all the way down both bolts.
Next, use a C-Clamp from the rotor to the center hub in the front. Tighten as much as you can without breaking.
Next, try to drive a screw driver into the back of the rotor where it meets the hub if there is a small gap.
Next, douse in pepnetrating oil in the places mentioned above. Wait 5 minutes.
Lastly, use a small sledge hammer to bang out the rotor. When installing new rotors, use a small amount of anti seize on the inside area of the rotors.
