Actually the axle flange only has 5 small bolts(2 speed), but the drum and backing plate look identical to my '41 which does have the 8 bolt axle.

The slack adjusters are frozen, and though Ive worked alot of it out, dirt and rust in the drum have the shoes pretty tight. I do have access to a dolly at work, but I've always had the luxury of being able to back the brakes off first when using it. If the weather straightens up, I'll borrow the dolly and take another crack at it this weekend.
