Replacing my rear rotors on my 2004 XJ8. Ok so I moved the car into Nuetral to disengage the auto parkbrake feature. Removed the screws holding the caliper unit and brake pad cradle. Figured the rotor would come right off but she just won't come off. Is there something I'm missing here. Is there a bolt behind the rotor that should be removed. Thanks!

I looked at those. They appeared as more placement washers than true lock washers. in other words you could bend them with slight pressure. The Rotors should budge slightly but nothing. To complicate matters CoventryWest sent me the wrong rotors (almost 1/2 inch over width). So I'm sending those back and going to give my trusted Jag Mechanic some rent money to finish the job. Will say this. My 1989 XJ6 was a heck of a lot easier to work on. But then again my garage floor is a lot cleaner these days
Appreciate the wisdom never-the-less. Thanks!
