Wheel, Hub, and drum will come off as one unit. Back the brakes off, and just remove the spindle nut and it all slides off. Make sure you use all new hardware and replace the pin bushings. Check the s-cam bushings while you are in their. Quote Link to comment https://www.bigmacktrucks.com/topic/11705-repairing-my-brakes/#findComment-44910 Share on other sites More sharing options...
