Hello!! I need Help !! I'm in the process of checking my rear
brakes. Unfortunately I cannot get the brake drums off unless I know
what size of screw I must insert in the 2 holes to remove it. Can
anyone Help me with some information?
Thanks...Chad

Chad.
I check mine periodically ('97 4wd 4 cylinder, 159k miles) and I've
never had to use the threaded holes. Just get a rubber mallet and bang
on the back of the drum. You have to put some force into it, but
they'll come off. Alternate banging on opposite edges of the drum to
keep it from binding.

the hole size is 8mm , when you run the bolts in dont over do it because the
force will crack the drum!!!! work them back and forth and some pen oil wont
hurt ether.Todd Travis
