you say its 2wd? if its 2wd, you have to pop the dust cap off the center of the rotor to expose a castle (axle nut) and cotter pin. THESE MUST BE REMOVED IN ORDER TO REMOVE THE ROTOR!!!

ok,my mistake..I thought we were talking 4wd for some reason./..\

yes,its just stuck...remove the 3 bolts out the back and your wheel speed sensor wire....

you say "seal"...I assume you mean the front hub??
