Default 1978 rear rotor removal

I have a 78 L82 vette. Has rear disc brakes, a two piece caliper. I am trying to removing the rear rotors to get to the bearings. I cannot get the rotors off. Looks like I have to remove the axle shaft, an some other componets to get the rotor off. I was wondering if I am going in the right direction. Any suggestions? Thanks.

You might want to check and see if the rotor is still riveted to the spindle.....: )....GM did that with the original rotors upon assembly. You just simply drill them out....
