    Subject: Yak 52 wheels
    I have a question. Does the outside of the wheel, Part facing away from hub come off. I need to access the nuts to remove the brake drum from the wheel. There are some clips on outside of hubcap side of wheel. Or do rivets have to be drilled out to access from that side Thanks On May 29, 2016 17:10:14 "Royden Heays" <heaysr@telus.net> wrote: > I agree with Doc. > > Also; > > * Take a look at the banjo fitting at the compressor.

    You really do not need to remove the hubcap to change out the drake drums, but you will need to fashion a special 90 degree wrench. The "rivets" are not rivets, they are steel drive pins, not unlike the ones used to attach data tags on Lyc and Cont. engines. If you try to drill them out you will, unless everything goes 100% correctly and you are real good with a drill, ruin the wheel or at the least make it impossible to reinstall the hubcap properly. To properly remove the drive pins you will need a pair of end cut wire cutters. Grind the face flat so that the jaws contact the head of the drive pin as close to the hub cap as possible. Squeeze down firmly but not hard enough to cut off the head, and turn the cutters counter clockwise and the pins will unscrew out of the wheel. Hope this helps.

    I'll chime in with a question of my own, re: CJ6 wheels... I've not yet had my wheels apart, tho I'm sure it would be helpful for a cleaning. What size socket is needed for this large wheel nut? Any special tools required (Doug S), ie- breaker bar, bearing puller, etc? Wish I could watch or assist someone doing theirs before I ever try my own... videos out there?

Eastern Daylight Time, dougsappllc@gmail.com writes: You really do not need to remove the hubcap to change out the drake drums, but you will need to fashion a special 90 degree wrench. The "rivets" are not rivets, they are steel drive pins, not unlike the ones used to attach data tags on Lyc and Cont. engines. If you try to drill them out you will, unless everything goes 100% correctly and you are real good with a drill, ruin the wheel or at the least make it impossible to reinstall the hubcap properly. To properly remove the drive pins you will need a pair of end cut wire cutters. Grind the face flat so that the jaws contact the head of the drive pin as close to the hub cap as possible. Squeeze down firmly but not hard enough to cut off the head, and turn the cutters counter clockwise and the pins will unscrew out of the wheel. Hope this helps.

I need to access the nuts to remove the brake drum from the wheel. There are some clips on outside of hubcap side of wheel. Or do rivets have to be drilled out to access from that side Thanks Get _Outlook for Android_ (https://aka.ms/ghei36)

    Subject: Stainless Steel Exhaust Needed
    From: "CarterM" <cmann1.cm@gmail.com>
    Good evening Yakkers, I am desperately in need of a piece for my Housai stainless steel exhaust. I managed to toast the piece on the Number 2 cylinder (top left if you're sitting in the cockpit). Checked with both Doug and M-14P to no success. Looks like I may have to get one shipped from China unless anyone out there has one they would be willing to sell. Thanks!
