Hi everyone,

After seeing the discussion about removal of the brake drums last week
I decided to try and replace my rear brakes.  But I can not get the
rear drums off!!  I have hit the drums with a hammer to no avail - I
have also hollered quite a bit while hitting the drums with the hammer
(rubber mallet actually).

I have also adjusted the breaks through the hole in the rear to
prevent binding.  I do not believe the breaks are binding against the
drum because the drum rotates freely.

I have pulled, yanked and ate my Wheaties.

Any ideas?

Paul

P.S. I appologize for bringing up a topic that was probably already
covered, but the archive at vanagon.com is down.  Does anyone know of
another archive?
