I spent all day on this thing..Well half the day....This thing hasnt seen a wrench since 84 I bet!!!!Had to use the ol' Hammer Socket on a few things!!!!!LOL Anyway, I need help with the brakes....How do I get to them..I know this sounds funny but I have never had to do the drum style before....How do I get the drum off...Could someone answere this for me???There are also two nuts near the drum on the axle....Do I need to take this appart so the drum slides off??? Here is a few pics...I feel guilty even posting them now.....Oh yea, I am going to pic up my new Tri-Z tonight...the guy I bought it from is bringing it down from reno...You might have seen it on Ebay..He ended auction early and sold it to me...Anyway, Im torn now on which to do..Fix the broken stuff on the new Tri-Z and have two to ride and still hunt for parts for the Tri-Z Sand Drag bike I am building...Or, use this bike to finish the Drag bike...I hate making choices like this...It wears me out...LOL

you need to remove the two nuts on the axle. they hold the drum on, when you remove these nuts, your gonna have a great time removing that drum. it does look a little cleaner then mine was, so it might be alright.

Good Luck!

on an other note,

Make sure you reseal and tighten that case back up real good when your done, mudd and water have amazing abilitys.
