Help!!!! E34 R rotors.
 
Cant get the rear rotors off, I can get them to move, but I cant get them right off, it kinda feels like there is a spring holding it all in place, but I cant quite locate it.

Also....... what are the little tabs on the back of the dust protecter that when I twisted them, they released into the hub assembly, if I could get the rotors off I could probably see for myself.



Thanks GUys!!!!

Do the rear rotors have a small hole in them at all? I know on my truck you had to put a bolt in there to release the rotor, kinda pushes it off the hub.

^learning experience. I was going to say get a peice of wood and a hammer or something and just pop the sucker off.

i just read the first sentence and said to myself... parking brake.

i did the same thing on my e30 when i did the install. the bitch part was getting the new ones over the parke brake as it didn't wanna slide over

I was going to say parking brake, but they all beat me to it. I did that when removing my stock rotors last summer. As I said back then, the learning curve was about 2 day for the whole project and only 4 hours for the actual labor.
