Removing rear drum - scottbmxer - 02-07-2013
Removed hub nut, circlip and washer! Been smashing the drum for an hour or so with hammers and chissels, seemed to move about 10mm on top and 5 botton barring in mind me and a m8 havr been hitting it around the whole drum.
Any ideas why the bastard isnt coming off?

Frm wht I cld undrstnd v ur txt speakz innit! (just talk normally mate is easier for people to understand you, thus you may get a little more help)
You need to slacken off the shoe adjuster nut, as the shoes are holding the drum on as it is

Handbrake on?

If you've got a spare wheel you don't need knocking around, put it on and batter the life out of it. I had to do the same when I changed my rear brakes. Just gives you some more leverage to get the drum off.

Sorry grant was writing it in a hurry because it was raining and I had all my tools out
Handbrake fully off and released the handbrake operating lever

get a crow bar in there, or a large flat head screwdriver. it will come, they do get f*cking seized, just keep ramming it, turning, ram, turn, ram, turn.. pop. giggedy.

slacken the handbrake---un-adjust it loads so the handbrake lever allows the shoes to retract.
then a big screwdriver in either side and wiggle it off.

The bearing could be stuck on the stub axle
Smash the stub axle through the centre
