    Sometime when you're passing through that area there's supposed to be a big frickin' hill somewhere off ski hill rd. in Lincoln Cty.
    Where 17 crosses, Lincoln, Langlade and Oneida Cty is CtyB. Ski Hill Rd. is off CtyB.......Harrison Hills trails area.
    Lots of trails around there.

    Full coverage?

    What company?

    I think I should probably shop around at some point also.

    I'm paying more than that, but that is for 2 vehicles with full coverage. Still seems high when compared to what others are paying. I did have an OWI in 2014, but I really don't think that should still be affecting my rates.

    Just looked, my tundra is $1204.50 for the year. There’s also an additional discount to pay in full vs monthly.

    Do we have any brake experts around?
    I’m trying to get the disc off my son’s car. It’s sure stuck.
    Pounded enough to actually break the damned disc!

    Do you have access to an air hammer? I have seen air hammers work miracles before. Also is it not one of the rotors that has a threaded hole to screw in a bolt that helps pop it free?

    Firstly, let me say this emoji: :eek: . That is impressive, and also I've been there before. When you get it back together, put anti-seize on the hub face between the studs so it doesn't happen to the next guy.

    Second, do you have any air tools available especially an air hammer? Whether air or manual, take your hammer and hit the rotor HARD between where the lug studs are (see red arrow below). That's where it's frozen. Alternate where you hit and keep hitting. Pray to the deity of your choice.

    If you get really desparate you can involve heat but I'd reserve that for the very last effort because you'll probably roach the hub bearing too.

    Stop hitting it with your purse and try a hammer next LOL. Just kidding, but yeah big hammer and do your best roleplay of Conan the Barbarian on that mofo. Grinder could work but you're not going to have any more fun than you are already. Try spraying penetrating fluid in the lug stud holes if you can, keep soaking it in there. Pray, when it doesn't work switch to another deity, rinse and repeat. Take frequent rest breaks and ponder the meaning of life.

    Made a quick pit stop on my way south at Tigerton! Was hoping to maybe catch @rubbersidedown but I'm sure he's out "playing," as Pat would say.

    Still some of the best campsites around, I'd say.

    You don't have the little holes in your rotor where you can run a screw through to pop them off?
