TT-3300 The following technical information supplied by AMERICAN BRAKEBLOK. REAR BRAKE DRUM REMOVAL Vega &Astre 1975-72 Monza, Starfire, Sky Hawk 1975 If the drum cannot be removed because the brakes are adjusted too snugly or a lip has formed on the drum, it will be necessary to release the brake adjuster assembly (Figure 1). Knock out plug in the flange of the brake drum using a chisel or similar tool (Figure 2). Release the rod assembly from the trail ing shoe by pushing in on the rod until it is clear of the shoe (Figure 3). The pull-back spring will then pull the shoes toward each other and the drum may be removed. CAUTION After knocking out the plug in the flange of the drum (Figure 2), be sure to remove the piece of metal from inside the drum area as well as any small pieces of metal that might have fallen from the flange. A new rubber hole cover must be installed when the drum is re installed. If the drum already incorporated a rubber hole cover, remove and replace the old cover. PUSH "IN" TO RELEASE R. E.
