Re: brake question???
 

we'll i have off tomorrow so i should have all day to do this ..i hope to god it doesnt take me that long :1

and i knew better than the wheel studs i understand that theyr not any part of the drum :8

Re: brake question???
 

don't use a hand sledge, if you really pound that drum there's a possibility of cracking/warping/skipping off, breaking something. big ------ rubber mallet, good, thick shaft, wide tip screwdrivers, or a good prybar. also, if you're gonna be replacing the brakes, spray that ---- down with PB or something. who cares if you get oil on the old pads? don't forget the star wheel, back that fucker down so the shoes dont grip the drum too

good tips should make things go alot smoother :y

Re: brake question???
 

Rubber mallet is for suckers, use a sledge. If it doesn't come off just keep banging harder/prying until it does.

Re: brake question???
 

use the two screw holes, 8x1.25 thread I believe.

^^^good idea...i forgot all about them damn things ..i have to go get some hardware anyway ... :6

Re: brake question???
 

if it still doesnt work go to the back of the drum and there will be a little black rubber thing.
pop that out and u hae acess to the adjuster. spinn it all the way in and the drum should slide of.


also if the drum is that bad(rust ridge)u should replace the drums while u are at it to it doesnt matter how hard u hit that fucker

Re: brake question???
