The Stovebolt Site Forums The Parking Lot Big Bolts Stuck star wheels on 2.5 T '58 Chevy

Can you unbolt the entire backing plate and take the brake shoes, wheel cylinder and hub off all in one piece?

I had to do this with my '46 that I got. After getting the nuts off of the 5(I think) bolts it all came off as an assembly and I could free up the shoes once off. I ended up having to cut the nuts off with a torch as they were too rusted for a socket. If you are careful with the torch you won't even hurt the bolt.
