Is there something I'm missing or is my drums and hub screwed? My drums r seized to my hub. I have tried rubber mallet, 10 pnd mallet PB blaster, and I even heated the hell outta it with no luck. It will not come off

 

Is there a lip on the inside of the drum that the pads are getting caught on?

 

Nope. The drum won't even budge. Parking brakes off. There no where near adjustment. That's the reason I wanna get I'm off. They spin freely with no drag whatsoever and the star wheel is seized

 

Make sure the e-brakes not on, . Then just keep punding some nice solid hits between the studs (I normally just use a 2 lb hammer) 1-3 hits between each studs then move on to the next area. Just keep repeating, I have had this process take a very long time. Anyone else know any tricks?

 

brute force is the answer! suffered same prob more than once myself.
jb blaster or equiv and hammer (not mallet, they absorb some o the force). i use a 3# and 6# mini sledge - don't be shy w hammer. heat helps but carefull o the fumes. heat between the studs and hit w hammer all around drum. rock veh back and forth w wheels on ground applying brakes hard. make sure the adjuster is loose as can be on wheel ur workin on. just keep at it, took me a couple hrs of bangin and rockin to get loose.
i never broke a drum bangin on it, am carefull on the outer edge.
no easy/other way i know of to get em off. will be watchin to see if any1 knows another way. btw - arms will be SORE afterwards GUARANTEED.

 

If they spin and dont come off ,that usally means it has a lip on them. It's a little hard to see a lip with the drum on, you need to back off the shoe's all the way or like stated use brute force which will break something. Thats it. If you you throw your tallywacker of a mallet away it will help.

 

it will spin but it is seized to the wheel hub. when i pull on it the hub whiggles with it. not much but it slides the slidest bit with it then stops
