Default Removing Rotors

Hey All:
I have a 1991 Volvo 240 Sedan that I am putting back on the road. A few questions.

- How do you remove the brake rotors once the calipers have been removed?

- Is it worth replacing the dirt covers on the rear of the brake rotors?

Thanks,
Joe

On my 88 it was all pretty straight forward until I left the emergency brake on when trying to pull the rotors off. Seems like the lug nuts were pretty much all that were holding them on (and the e-brake when engaged). They practically fell off once the e-brake was released. Of course, that was after a half hour of pulling and swearing.

I don't know about the dirt covers, but I was wondering where to get new pins and brace.
