How is this rotor removed? Is there a center bolt or does it just pull off, push on, etc??

Well on my 1996 they just pull off, so I would guess yours do the same. After you remove the brake caliber of course.

On the 99+ Windstars the OEM rotors are held on by 3 torx bolts. You can see them in this diagram:

If you are replacing the rotors with aftermarkets the new rotors may not have the 5 holes for the 3 bolts (2 holes are not used). If this is the case then do not worry about the bolts. The brakes and wheels will hold everything in place similar to RWD rear drums.
