Rotors will not come off.I am spraying around the center section and at wheel lugs with pb blaster for three days. Hitting both front and backside with a 4 foot sledge hammer. And they wont loosen a bit.I'm thinkin next is cutting them off with a cutoff grinder. Any advise?

If you don't remove the caliper bracket it will never come off. Try tapping around center with asmall hammer then heating with a propane torch then repeat a few times. An 8 oz hammer will do
