BTW, this is a very well done, and much needed video on repairing vintage Yamaha ATV front brakes. Just what I needed when bringing a 94 Kodiak back to life.
Next time, don't use the jaw puller.. Rent a hub puller from autozone..Fits perfect on these hubs, and you don't have to worry about messing up the wheel studs or the axle shaft.. The hub puller is only 25 bucks, too.. It's also made to pull these hubs, unlike the jaw puller.. It's OEM TOOLS Part #27037 You were lucky your quad lived most of its life with the dust caps on the axle nuts.. I have had some that seemed to have the hub rust welded on the axle.. You would never get one rusted up that bad off with a 2 jaw puller like you did..

Very nice trick. Both of my drums are badly stuck. I will try your trick tomorrow.
Thanks girlfriend I learned something....I try to do it everyday.
Just leave the wheel on and remove the center nut. And just rotate the drum to align the hole for the adjuster
The part where you adjust how loose or tight it is that you said everybody knows is the one part I didn't know.
NICE !! THANK YOU !!!!!
My Kodiak manual says to tighten the pads solid against the drum, and then back off 3 iterations with the screwdriver.
Copy that Airbiscuit. Hail to the manual!
What year is your Kodiak?
