The rotor should practically fall off, once the caliper is removed (if there are no star washers holding it on). The rotor is sandwiched by the lug nuts, wheel and axle flange. There is nothing else that holds it on.

Simple as hell buddy. Like Rob said, just pull the tire, unbolt the caliper, pull it off the rotor and the rotor will just come off. Takes about 5 minutes for the whole procedure.

The wire springs on the caliper definitely go on the inside.
