Ok gang, I give up.

Many of you have said that you can remove the rear drum without
removing the 46 mm nut. Well on my 84 westy, you can not, so I
went and bought a 46 mm axle nut removal tool, beat the hell out
of it and presto, off comes the drum and hub.

Well, I need to replace  my drums. But removing the hub piece from
the drum is proving elusive.
yes, I have removed the two 11 mm bolts.
Yes, I have dropped it on the driveway from a reasonable height.
Yes, I have beaten it severely with a bfh and it seem to still
refuse to separate.

Any ideas, I really want to go to High Country.

Thanks to all.

Jim
