<VV> Early rear wheel cyl removal

[PatioMatt at aol.com]

AHH!  but you must loosen the axle flange considerably!    There's a small 
7/16" head bolt.. maybe 2..... holding it to the backing  plate!

Hi  folks,

Since we had a beautiful day here yesterday, Trevor and I got  a  
little done on the '62 700 wagon's brakes.  We are doing a  complete  
overhaul, new hoses, shoes, hardware, and cylinders.   According to my  
trusty shop manual, removing the rear wheel  cylinders is just a  
matter of:

- taking off the return  springs and shoes (done)
- removing the top pivot (done)
-  removing the hose (loose but still attached)
- and then removing the  cylinder.

The cylinder doesn't budge.  Any clues?  BTW, I  have done a number of  
late models, this is clearly different.   I have not removed the axle  
since it's not in the steps.   Thanks for any suggestions.

--Bryan
