Re: [FWDLK] Front brake drum removal



All you need to do is to remove the center cap, exposing the nut that holds
the outer wheel bearing, then remove the nut and the drum & hub will slide
off as a unit.If it doesn't come off easily you may have to back off the
brake adjustment for more room.The outer wheel bearing will drop out the
front and the inner one should remain in the hub, held by the wheel seal.

Hi everyone,

And now for a dumb question ...

How do you remove the front brake drum ? The service manual says no more
than "Remove the front wheel and drum as an assembly, after backing off the
adjusting cams". Do I miss something really obvious ? Like removing the
center bolt first ? Do I need a puller as for the rear axle ?
