right then, iv just swaped my drums for disks on the rear of the nova, i brought the whole bean allready built up,
i droped the old beam off in one, wheels, suspension, beam as its all in the bin apart from the wheels

rebuilt the car, new rear coilovers, zorst back on, handbrake, bleed the calipers,

heres the question, how the hell do i get the wheels off the old beamhttp://www.streetrace.co.uk/forum/images/smilies/smiley9.gif the bolts are done up with a nut runner

try and clamp the drums, or find a way of pulling the handbrake cable to lock the brakes...

wont be easy though

Large breaker bar and 17mm socket and two weetabix for breakfast!
Or nip it down to kwick fit or similar and get them to remove with airgun.

I would go with the breaker bar and weetabix idea. You may want to get a couple friends (if you have some), feed them some weetabix and get them to hold on to the wheel.

Get someone stand on the beam.
Then you undo them?

[mowgli]

simply sit on top of a wheel & undo it. If that doesn't work, wheel it up to your house wall and then sit on it & undo it. the tyre friction & your body weight (not that I would know what that is) should be enough

iv tried that and the wheel just wants to climb the wall lol

take nut off out of the centre of the drum remve wheel with drum still on it then take to kwik fit an get the drums taken off the whheels

[mowgli]

how about jacking the car up & slide the axle back under & lower the car onto the wheels just enough to stop them turning....

[General Baxter]

sorted, after breaking 2 snap on breaker bars (6ft) and 5 snap on 17mm sockets lol

Right i managed to find a way to get them off when the wheels are off the ground. Get a breaker bar and then slowly rotate it clockwise then suddenly flick it anticlockwise. Much easier than trying to clamp things, jump on things.
