How do you remove the front rotors on a 2006 pontic montana? I removed the t type screw between the lugnut studs but the rotor still would not come off. Is there some kind of trick to this?

You may just need to tap on it with a hammer to break the rust loose. I would also spray some WD40 or similar around the center.

Ok, it is really rusted on there then. Spray around the studs and into the retaining screw holes, saturate well let set for a little while. Then take hammer and beat on rotor between studs to break rust bond, this may take quite a bit of beating.
