Have you tried threading 2 bolts into the jacking locations on the rotor and using those to push the rotor off? I had to do that for both of mine and it basically destroyed some of the parking brake parts but a rebuild kit was in stock at a local parts store and fairly cheap.

I'll probably be hung, drawn, and quartered for this, but I'm a huge fan of eliminating the parking brake. Living in the rust belt, it gets expensive real quick to start fixing parking brake cables and whatnot.

If there is a hole there you should still be able to rotate it until they line up.
unlikely that anyone would buy/install a rotor that isn't designed for the vehicle.

But +1 for the 3lb maul and another for eliminating the P brake altogether..
It took me a good hour at least to beat my old rears off and after installing everything new I just left it loose since they commonly sieze. Plus, I've never had an issue with the brakes not holding enough on some pretty steep incline park jobs.

3lb usually gets it off...

but there was this one time broke the entire brake disc off leaving the center hat of the rotor still fused to the Hub!

I cut the rotor right down the center but not right thru where the hub was and split it with a cold chisel. Rotor came off in 3 pieces.
