  • Stupid brake drum!

    One of the rear drums on my new 91 Festiva has no cutouts where you can drift out the bearing races. In fact the hole on the casting is a bit smaller than the inside diameter of the outer race - no way to tap it out at all. Never seen such a thing! I dropped it off at a machine shop...

    Might be cheaper to buy a new drum than pay machine shop.

      The guy at the counter guessed "five or ten bucks". Told him to call me first before going over that. (The shop guys aren't in today)

            The only way I've been able to get them out is from the opposite side.
            The races usually have a little smaller id than the seat allowing me use a screwdriver and a hammer to knock them out..
