David:

You don't need to remove the rotor to remove the CV/drive axle.

You can use an easyout to try to remove it or you can drill it out.  You don't 
need to worry about it now.  It simply holds the rotor on the hub while you're 
wrestling with the wheel.  Once the wheel is on and secured to the hub/rotor by 
the wheel bolts it adds no or little value.

HTH,

Chris

           Well the drivers side cv joint went in fairly easy, so of course I'm 
        having trouble from the get go with the passanger side. I just broke 
off the 
        head of the screw/bolt that holds the rotor in place!!! I was trying to 
get 
        the hub nut off, and snap, here I am. 2 big questions:

        1. Which store carries replacement screws/bolts of this kind or is
           it stealer only?

        2. How the hell am I going to get the broken screw/bolt out?!
