yea i looked at the stoptech install guide(not installing stoptechs just OEM) and foundout im a dumba$$ and the e-brake needs to be released. however, ive since tried removing it with the e-brake relaesed and no dice. the damn thing wont budge. I wailed on it with a rubber mallet for a little bit and still nothing. Any thoughts? theres no other bolts that need to be removed besides the 2 19mm ones holding the caliper on correct?

Mine were stuck too. I needed to use a 6" gear puller to put tension on it before it popped off. Also, if you are not planning on reusing the rotor, ditch the rubber mallet and get a hammer.. G/L.
