Sorry. Thought maybe this might get you a new "toy" er tool for the shop. You could try using a blunt object like a 1/2" socket extension and a ball peen hammer in the same pattern- working around the center of the hub, smacking it pretty good. Wear safety glasses in case the rotor lets a chip fly. What has happened is that the rear face of the rotor has rust bonded to the hub. Setting up vibration (intense) generally will loosen. FYI- an air hammer (chisel) can be had for less than $30 from a few places if you already have a compressor.

Good luck

Dave
