Upon returning from the rally in Tucson in May, I discovered one of my rear wheel studs had sheared.
Went and retorqued all my wheels (150ft-lbs). While doing that the stud located next to my bad stud broke also.
Removed brake drum with faceplate.
Was able to remove only one of the bolts holding the face plate to the drum using an impact wrench.
Have had it soaking with ATF:acetone
mixture for several weeks while away visiting grandchildren. Still no luck getting the other 7 bolts out.
Any tips on the bolt removal and driving out the sheared studs?
