Once it is off it is an easy matter to disassemble everything with no need to heat or pound on anything. I would be very, very, very careful trying to adjust the brakes off as I destroyed one of the adjusters trying to loosen it. By taking the backing plate off you don't have to try to move anything that is frozen.
