#92: Re: restoration Hudson 1949 from france Author: stone, Location: francePosted: Sat Jan 28, 2012 2:00 am ---- Hi Sean
not yet, this morning I will take a new stronger Extractor
May be I heat?
#93: Re: restoration Hudson 1949 from france Author: 51hornet, Location: Edmonton Alberta CanadaPosted: Sat Jan 28, 2012 3:55 am ---- Be careful of heat. Not on drum only on hub. And you are sure the shoes are not binding on the drum?

not always no, brakes are free good, I put the degripant but nothing I expect a new Extractor with a mass inertia, I understand... .grrrrr
Roger this....

See this extractor the handle part is called the dog bone you hit that with a small sledge hammer. And you hit it hard this is what breaks the drum free from the axle.
The puller you show in the pic will not work.

But if does not work?

See the way he has put the nut back on because when you hit hard the drum can release quick and hit you. But you hit hard the dog bone with hammer it will come off.

Here you go Pierre download this body manual that Alex Burr scanned. Go to page 20 and on and it tells you everything you need to know about putting windshield back in. Plus this is useful for your restoration.

I have this book at home, but the images are bad qualities. My problem is for the windshield before, above the windshield is you it Staples?

#103: Re: restoration Hudson 1949 from france Author: stone, Location: francePosted: Sat Mar 03, 2012 9:59 am ---- Hello
always with my brake drums
a new system but step results, I understand, I left in tension with the degripant may be that comes in a few days
#104: Re: restoration Hudson 1949 from france Author: 51hornet, Location: Edmonton Alberta CanadaPosted: Sat Mar 03, 2012 3:55 pm ---- Wow I have never had a set that took that much to get off..
#105: Re: restoration Hudson 1949 from france Author: hemmer.tom, Location: Bavaria, GermanyPosted: Thu Mar 08, 2012 4:45 am ---- Hey Pierre,
nice to see that you go successfully on in your restauration projekt. Nice paint job! The story with the brake drum is really bad, when i remove the central screw i can put them off by hand without any difficultys on my 52 Pacemaker, just a little "knock knock" with the hammer and they switch off... I wonder why yours doesn't ...
Go on trying, i think you will make it! And when it's done, give us a successful message...
