These babies are rusted on there pretty well. Have tapped, wrapped, in between lugs ...liberally. Sprayed PB Blaster at lugs.
Wheels rotate so ...brakes aren't "locked on"? (if the pads were locked onto the wheel, she wouldn't spin, would she?).
Stuck a metal pry bar in behind lip of drum and hit from behind ...no budge. Got a pipe into the same lip and hit the snot out of that, rotated wheel, hit some more... NO BUDGE.
Ideas? I thought of spinning that "adjuster" to loosen brake pads, (but not sure what that will do if pads aren't impacted spin of wheel). Honestly, I don't even see where I'd spin/adjust the adjuster. There are, what appears, two oval spots where there MIGHT be openings, but, they've got covers in the way. They look like they could be punched out, but, ...not sure if that's the thing to do.
Thanks all,
Jay
