Re: IML: 1961 chrysler imperial brake drum



I was actually thinking it had a groove, as was addressed here earlier. IF it has worn a groove in the drum surface over the years, the shoe's surface could be in that groove, and the cheeks of the groove could be preventing it from sliding off (sideways).

hi,
 
It's a shorter trip to the mental hospital... just kidding .. sorry you have so many problems . some things just take a lot of determintion, heat, a big f-ing hammer and luck  .(pardon my french).. get your torch out and make it hot ---  then hit it with a BFH,,,over and over( on the side of the hub)  until the vein in your forehead sticks out !!!   you may have to replace it but it will come off!
Best of luck
