I am replacing the pads and rotors on my 2005 Chevy Colorado 4 WD pickup. How do I remove the front hub in order to get the rotor off?

These rotors should slide right off the studs. Once you remove the caliper and the caliper bracket they should come off. Since you are replacing the rotors feel free to give the rotor a bit of sledge hammer encouragement to get them off. Good Luck

I’ll have to use that line the next time I have to explain to a customer, why they were charged extra labour to remove a seized part. LOL
