Talk Morgan Forums Morgan Sports Cars Maintenance & Servicing removal of rear brake drum

Think there is a bit of topic drift going on here which is getting a bit confusing for all concerned

With the car on axle stands

Give the brake drum a couple of clouts around its circumference with a copper hammer (not steel!, try to avoid the rim cast into the brake drum.

Slacken the brake adjuster right off and I mean right off! Remove the 1/4" set screws, there may be up to four of them.

No need to remove the slotted screw as earlier posters have said, they are there to locate the drum.

The drum should then just pull off, it will be full of brake dust, not sure what linings you have fitted so assume it contains asbestos.

Hope this helps
