[dacota25d]

I just picked up a 110 and a 125 today. I started digging into the 125 and it needs new rear axle bearings and i cant get the brake drum off is there a trick to this? and it didnt come with a carb on it but i have one that will fit but where do i hook this hose to? thanks for any help. I cant wait to get ripping on the new trikes!

There (should be) an o-ring behind the axle nut and washer. If you don't remove it, the drum is a lot harder to get off. Of course, it can STILL be a bear to get off even without that problem if the brakes are bound up. Make sure the brake arm is as close to the "neutral" position as you can get it by loosening the brake cable as well, though you've probably already done that.

Ive been fighting the brake drum all week and I still ca nt get that thing off its stuck on pretty good ive tried penetrating oils and heat and still won't budge all the nuts are loose and breaks are backed off. Anyone have any ideas how to get this thing off?
