basic help with pulling drums 120-130 1960

Hello Mike: Yes, it takes a heavy duty wheel puller to remove the rear drums. Remove the castle nut, then put it back onto the axle backwards, otherwise you will ruin the threads on the axle (as the previous owner did on my Amazon!) I also have a die to clean the threads since even using this procedure may still damage the threads. As you can see, you hit the arms of the puller with a small sledge hammer. You can check out other tricks I learned when I did my Amazon a few years ago: http://cvolvo.com/Central/AMAZON/

PS: this picture is from my 444 but they're essentially the same drum

Good luck.
