cutting a drum brake off!? 120-130

If you've got the brake adjusters backed off all the way, have sprayed some penetrant into the joint between the axle and drum, are using the correct puller with three or more legs going under the wheel studs and a hex on the screw part that has a steel head with two striking faces, with the drum nut turned around on the end of the axle so it isn't ruined by the puller, a big hammer and a will to do it, you can take that drum off.

Give it plenty of THAT, and don't get your face too close to the operation, because when the drum finally lets go, it may do so with a vengeance. Don't get a case of Volvonose like I did.
