Hi SHAKERAG,

The hub are tightly fitted onto the centre seats so you need to pull it out by knocking it loose. Some rust remover helps.

If you are unable to get it loosened up, use 2 pcs of 8 X 1.25 metric bolt to bolt on the 2 small threaded hole to pull it out.

CAUTION : DO NOT use excessive force and do it evenly to prevent the drum from distortion.
