Got the tools from HF yesterday. I had to do some painting on the inside of our house the last few days. Still got to do some running today before I can get started today. Thanks for everyone's imput.

Ok, thanks guys for taking the time to help me out. I'll try the HF tools. If they break, I can just learn a lesson and go buy a national brand one for more money or I might be able to find a good deal on feebay or craigslist. I'll go try HF tomorrow. Everyone have a great weekend.

I can buy all those tools and a bearing packer at Harbor Freight or should I buy the more expensive ones at AutoZone?

Ok, thanks for the advice about the bearings and seals and things. I'll try to take one off this weekend. I went to the Mecum Auction today. Wow! There were some very rare cars there. Many were rare because of their factory paint. There were many Mopars there, including a '57 Desoto Adventurer...

Thanks, Big John, I'll go try that now. I bought some jack stands and an aluminum racing jack from Harbor Freight last weekend just for this job. I'm so stupid sometimes. I should've known when it wasn't moving at all that I was doing something wrong like I always do. I also found some kind of...

Wow! Lots of work to get a brake drum off. So, I have to remove a few things before I can take the drum off? It is a front right drum. I am wondering if all of my drums are going to give me fits. I have to remove the spindle nut and the bearings first? I need to get a FSM and other manuals I...

Hey, I looked through 6 pages of info in this section and I didn't find a question regarding this problem, so . . . I was trying to get my first drum off of my car a few days ago and I tried using a hammer and PB Blaster and I couldn't get them to move. I did notice that the drum didn't turn...

I meant calipers. Right. I don't need any carbon fiber stuff. I will have some fiberglass panels made if no one makes them for the '66 Fury line, like the Sport Fury, which has the same doghouse and should have the same trunk lid and bumpers. I need to get the weight down on this Fury I am...

I will have a '66 Fury which weighs about 3,600 lbs. or so. Less than my mom's old '75 Cutlass Supreme 2-door. Drums might not be all that bad, but maybe I should at least replace the fronts with discs, the aluminum discs you suggested. That is a good idea. I might go ahead and do them all...

Stainless Steel Brake Corp.! Ohh. Are drum brakes lighter than disc set-ups? I want to shed some weight on my '66.

What is SSBC and was Budd a supplier for Chrysler back then? I guess these will be in different sizes? Drum brakes are lighter than disc ones?
