Default Re: AA/BB Truck rear drum removal tool question

When I disassembled a 29 AA for parts (You want WORK? - just take this on.) the rear wheels were the 5-hole version which had a hub like the pix above. (The 29 was one of the "transitional" trucks with the Borg-Warner 4 speed and even had the funny gas tank fill with the 30-31 gas cap.)

I ended up borrowing one of the heavy duty wheel pullers that bolt on the 5 lug-nuts from the Construction Depot where I worked. They work on heavy equipment like Line Trucks and have ALL the toys.

Even with an impact wrench turning that puller spindle, I still ended up heating one of the hubs with an acetylene torch. I used a 400F temp-crayon from the weld-shop.
