Need to press all the wheel studs out first.

Get a brass hammer and beat the studs out if you dont have access to a press. The rotor should fall right off then, if not give it a tap with the hammer.

Yup, need to remove wheel studs to get the two pieces to separate.

However, you can but rotors that have the hub 'carrier' attached already if you prefer. I do think it costs more to do it that way, and my local parts source did not have those on-hand, but could order them.

I ended up replacing rotors and re-installing my hub carrier.
