Re: Brake blues!

Easier with the correct tools. :) 

>From a reply to your recent thread "Brakes" that was prior to this thread.
 
"...The hub is swedged to the drum when the studs are pressed in from the
factory and or at a machine shop to keep everything in alignment reducing
vibration.  To remove the drums from the hub there is a tool that slides
over the stud and cuts it's shank off releasing the drum.  The problem is
you have to replace the studs.  One caution trying to hammer or press the
studs out I have seen people warp hubs doing this and I have seen people get
away with it completely.  But to do it right our studs need to be drilled
out and swedged back in by a machine shop.  )-:  Now might be a good time to
convert over to all right hand threads because they are much easier to find
and far less confusing to todays mechanics." [Herb]

Thanks,
