Re: [Amc-list] Removing hub from drum - press, hammer or replace

It has retaining screws on the rear drums. Those were no issue (after
the judicious application of hammer). The left front hub was just
free-floating. The right front is swaged on. I'm starting to wonder
how long it's been on. Anyway, heading to a machine shop today. It's
coming off one way or another! (or maybe I should just leave it alone
and see if I can get the drum turned with the hub inside. All I want
is a nice, clean, turned drum on a good hub).
