Alright first of all i just want to say that i appreciate all the help yall are giving me on this. I finally got the drum housing off, with a sledge hammer, and the drum brakes. But i still cant figure out how to get to the c-clip. Maybe i havent dont something yet but my axles dont move in any. Once again thanks for the help and barring with me on this project.
