Front drum removal
1970 k5 drums all around
Got the hub lock out. Two spindle nuts, a spring and the front bearing. Thought for sure the drum would pop off by now. I am missing a spring clip somewhere? |

Re: Front drum removal
Sounds like you need to adjust the shoes in. Can you feel the shoes grabbing in the drums?

Re: Front drum removal
Yep that is what it was. Just afraid to pull on it. I actually yanked until I broke the shoes loose. Not a big deal since I'm replaceing them anyway. But. How do you adjust the shoes in??

Re: Front drum removal
Should be a slot in the backing plate near the bottom. With it all apart you should be able to see where you could slide in a screwdriver and turn the adjuster wheel in the opposite direction and loosen the shoes.
