Re: Brake blues!



I looked on eBay to no avail. When I started doing this I was hoping that the hub and drum assembly was all one piece. It would be nice If I could find someone that made the hub and drum preinstalled to each other and all I gotta do is install. But if a frog had wings....lol I haven't really looked at how it was done so I was going off what y'all said blindly, I get what y'all are saying now. Yea I got a mic to do that with, but if I can't find a drum/hub combo I'll just order the drums and try my luck with a machine shop. It'd be nice if I lived in Houston I know they have lots of places that prolly know what to do.

After that is removed they can push out what's left of the old bolt with a press.
