We are trying to replace the rear brakes in a 2003 Neon...we cannot get the drums off. We took the adjuster all of the way in, used pry bars, and Stay loose and nothing has worked...does anyone have any suggestions?
i really had to swing hard,i had a little 2x4 i put up against the edge of the drum and it tokk awile to come off i tried the tap tap approach till i got frustrated.lol
Elegant solution...if you have blow torch try heating the drum (especially the center area of it) and then giving it a firm blow with the hammer). Heating the drum will cause the drum to expand a bit and break loose from the hub).
