The actual full hubs? I am not aware if they are able to be taken off without taking apart the body. The rotors came attached from the factory.
If there is a problem with the rotor itself, the problem cannot be easily fixed without destroying one or both of the Tomahawks involved.

It might be, it's just not something I've seen successful, But it could be.

post some pics of the base of the good rotor, and the opening on the tomohawk. normally with the rattlers and dragonflys i have repaired, there are glued joints just inside these areas. if you soften the glue, you can generally stick long needle-nose pliers in there (maybe from the bottomside) and with a quick jerk (opening the plier jaws against the inside walls near the joint) you can pop the joint. that should get enough clearance. then just reglue it when you close it back up.

Penny: Yeah, yeah. My mom gave me the same lecture about my virginity. Gotta tell you, it was a lot more fun taking it out and playing with it.

I don't know about taking the rotor hubs out but just recently I had to put new ones in one of my tomahawks and I just pried it enough to pop the new ones in without separating the shell
They say it is ok to talk to yourself as long as you don't answer. But sometimes you need to have intelligent conversations.
