    Genuine OEM Toyota rotors and drums have two threaded holes that you use to pop them off.

    This is actually a Honda but the principle is the same:

    The m8 screw goes into the holes to push the rotor off.

    Ther s a threaded hole in the hat of the rotor. Insert bolt and it'll "pop" the rotor off.

    Put the bolt in the threaded hole to take off a stuck rotor.

    How many more times can this be reworded?
