The Stovebolt Site Forums The Shop Area Driveline Help- getting off rear Drum on '51 3600 3/4T

Hey All, success !! Yest I put penitrating oil down each hole and around the studs (great idea), rotated it 90 degrees and added a little more. Let it sit for a few hours occ spinning it while I timed it and fooled around up front, then with a 2x4 and a good size hammer hit it moderately hard, 20 or so times in different places on the flat surface and wha-la, off it popped. I got scared not wanting to break the drum and have to find another (thanks for the heads up Master Gabster) and it's off !! now to find the leak, maybe the Oil seal at the end of the axel by the bearings. But this will be in a new thread it driveline later today. entitled: Help: leaking rear Rear Oil Seal

Thanks All for your help above, getting closer !!
