Scott Sounds like you have a 1098 Midget, it should also have disc brakes. A few good shots with a big hammer should free the brake drum. Squirt it with liquid wrench or other penetrating oil (WD does not penetrate well) let it sit a while and smack it hard beween each stud and all around the edge of the drum. If you crack it or break it into many pieces, I can send you one for cost of shipping. I have beat frozen brakes with a sledge hammer and never broke a drum (yet) that's why I have about a dozen hanging around the garage. I guess you have a project cut out for you now. -- Frank Clarici Toms River, NJ Bugeye Sprite 67 Sprite 59 A40 http://www.exit109.com/~spritenut/ |
