A friend of mine(Whom is very mechanicaly inclined)was telling me of the problem he has been having removing the brake drums on his Ford 2000 3 cylinder tractor. He says that it appears to come off like an automobile (Lug bolts off,Wheel off, drum off)He has used heat, penetrating oil, sledge hammer, etc. Is there more attachment points on these wheels ? Is he missing something? Any input would be appreciated !
Thank You,
Andy

The mating surface betweem the axle hub and the brake drum is quite large, it takes a lot to break away the years of rust and crud. Make sure the shoes are backed off. There is a groove on the out side of the drum you can hook a big three jaw puller on. Tighten up the puller as much as you dare then apply lots of heat to the drum, just inside the bolt circle. They come free with a very satisifing "thunk".Good luck, Roy

Is there an adjustment for the brakes? If so, try backing off that adjustment. Maybe the shoes are worn into grooves in the drum.

On the N series which is much older there are two large screw on the backing plates that need to be removed. Maybe his has these?
