The young whippersnappers in the automotive part stores don't know what I'm
talking about. But back in the days of front drum brakes, I remember
something like a gear puller that attached to the drum studs and used a large
screw to pull the drum loose by pushing against the axle. Last time I took
the front drums off of the TD, it took hours of coaxing with a mallet to get
them loose. I swore I'd never do it that way again. Well it's time for a
brake job again.
Is this puller available anymore? Is it the proper tool for the job? Should
the drums be that difficult to remove in the first place?
