Default 81 Trailing Arm

Can anyone point me in the direction to a detailed thread or site that will explain how to disassemble the trailing arm.

I cant seem to take apart the rotor or spindle.

the rotor is riveted on from the factory. if rivets were drilled rotor will come off after removing caliper and backing down park brake. spindle is pressed thru the inner and outer wheel bearings mounted in bearing carrier.
