PULLING DRUMS
I found out the hard way of course, that the drums come off quite easily. If you don't have a puller to fit your drum, I recommend the following:
a. loosen off both adjusting cams;
b. remove the brake line from the wheel cylinder;
c. remove the wheel cylinder bolts (drift the cylinder slightly inwards while bolts are still attached);
d. remove the nuts off the anchor pins (drift the pins inwards while the nuts are still attached); and
e. use a rubber mallet to rock the drum back and forth...
There was a world of difference between the removal of the first drum and the last drum.
