Thanks for all the hints on removing the drums. I sprayed one liberally with PB Buster and my son helped remove it. He works at a Saturn dealer, and one of his friends helped him with the drums on his old Ion. So - I didn't whack the drums anywhere near hard enough! A couple whacks with a rubber mallet all along the drum loosened it up, and off it went! WooHoo! So, by the pics - these are Bendix brakes, correct? Click on the album link, and two of the pics are of the drum brake. http://picasaweb.google.com/bruce.griffis/65RamblerAmerican Think I'll order parts (and a TSM) in the AM. _______________________________________________ Amc-list mailing list Amc-list@xxxxxxxxxxxx http://www.amc-list.com/mailman/listinfo/amc-list
