Im needing to take off the rear drum from my hub so I can swap the hub for a new one. Don't ask why!
Just wondered how to take the drum off. Ive taken the hub nut off but the drum doesnt wanna move.
Any tips would be very useful.
Cheers
Ben

evo kid

probably sounds really stupid , but is your handbrake off ?

The handbrake is off. The hub nut wos off so I could take the hub off as well and put a new one on
Finally found out how to "actually" do it. Needed to screw two bolts into the holes on the drum. As if it took me two hours to work that out!!!!

You got a Sport then?

I have my drums off as I type...just waiting for the paint to dry before putting them back on (tiniest bit of rust showing so gave tehm a full rub down followed by coat of black hammerite)

To take them off, simply wiggle them free!!! If they are ever so slightly rusted up (depending on age) you may need to give them a gentle tap with a rubber mallet to help

Ps. Do not need to remove hub nut to get drums off
