cannot remove drum bearing
so my front bearings are shot at least on the driver side. i am trying to remove the drum with no success. i have adjusted the shoes in a lot and i believe the outer bearing is frozen onto the spindle. i know idealy i would like to get rid of the drums and stuff but right now that isn't an option for me. any advise on getting the outer bearing off? i cannot figure out something small enough to cut the bearing off the spindle.

Re: cannot remove drum bearing
Looks like you're gonna have to fab up some adapters to use your cross puller on it. You need two that are threaded female to screw onto your studs & male to size that fits your cross puller. I have some made for the 18 wheelers & trls. That's not that uncommon to find bearings stuck to the spindle. Good luck!

Re: cannot remove drum bearing
There are 3 rivets holding the drum on the hub, looks like you cut 1 off.
