do not remove the center bolt, There may be 1-3 small bolts between the studs
just remove those and pull the drum off, the hub stays on.

There is an Allen nut in the middle of the window crank, remove it and the
handle will come off,there is a Phillips screw in the black plastic around the
door handle, remove the screw and the snake the trim off, the door panel may
have some screws in it if so remove them if nor it should come off easy, If it
has no screws in it do not put any in!

sounds like you have an air leak, get out some soapy water and start looking
for bubbles or just change all the lines, they probably need changing
anyways.

good luck finding an original, both bob hoffman and terry tanner make full
length replacements.
