I'm trying to take the wheel hub (I think that's what it's called) to get the rotor off but not matter what I try it won't come off. How do I get it off? Any tips?

What have you done so far to remove the rotor on your 78 924?

I think everything I need to. Calipers off and now stuck on I think it's called a grease cap. Do I need to do anything else to get this off? I know the driver's side has the c clip for the speedometer thing. But is there a bolt I'm missing to take these things off? Or are they just crazy rusted on

A big pair of channel lock pliers to grip it and yank it off.....YMMV

I take a small flat blade screwdriver and tap it between the cap and the hub in a couple of spots once it moves thus a bit twist the blade to pry it out.
