I removed 1 of the drum and hub assemblies from the rear of my 53 Commander last night. I followed all the tips I could find, but didn't have to resort to heat. Anyway, I remembered seeing a post some time back about modifying the studs so that the drum comes off the hub w/o removing the hub from the axle. I found the post at http://forum.studebakerdriversclub.c...=drum+separate
What can anyone share for real-world experience on this? Shoud I do it? I am not out to win any "factory'-correct" awards. I just don't want to go thru again. Are there other posts about this?
PS. I used the O'Reilly rental tool 67032. It worked well. If I don't mod the drums, I may just keep it. $22 if I don't return it.
