Default 2000 Camry XLE rear rotor removal

Can someone help me with this?? I can not figure out how to get the rear rotor off. Something is holding it on from the inside... I tried letting the parking brake gear all the way loose. Still wont come free. Any special tools I need?

Default RE: 2000 Camry XLE rear rotor removal

There are two threaded holes in the drum or rotor. When you remove the tire, these holes are right there in front of you. If you have two bolts with the proper threads, you can turn them into those holes, put a little torque on them and the rotor or drum will pop off. Make certain the parking brake is released. Threading the bolts into those holes will put pressure against the hub and break the drum/rotor free. This is a very easy procedure and highly effective. I hope this is helpful. Brake jobs on your Toyota are quite easy and doing it yourself is certainly worth it financially. Get the rotors/drums turned/re-surfaced at a local machine shop when you replaced the pads.
