2008 txt - brake drum stuck
Can’t get brake drum off drivers side. Been heating and beating but it won’t move. Have loosed adjuster/ drum spins freely but won’t move off the splines. Anything else to try? Thanks

I usually use a BFH and tap the drum from the back side, rotating positions on each impact. Never had one I couldn't get with the BFH.

Re: 2008 txt - brake drum stuck
Got it off. Had to use a hub puller as recommended. it ended up stripping the threads On the puller but still got the drum off. Thanks for the idea. I heated and beat it and never got it to budge. Splines were super rusty
Got it cleaned up with a wire brush and used anti seize on splines for re-assembly Passenger side came off easy. |

 And cutting the pins off at the back doesnt always do it either, for those who thought that would be the final "end all solution", where "nothing could stop you after that".  |

Re: 2008 txt - brake drum stuck
just in case this helps anyone later on, the tool used is actually called a "hub Puller" for fWD cars
autozone and advance both had them available for free rental. I dont think it would have come off any other way |
