Well it was a thought- admitdly without examining the backing plate. I can
reccomend a good coat of antisieze prior to reinstalling the axle. That way
the next person, yourself or another, will be able to easily pull the
axle(s).

that doesn't work sadly Tony. I had discs on the back when I broke mine so
the drums were not an issue. the only way is to pull the hub or notch the
axle flange.
with a good custom made puller that doesn't flex, pulling the hubs is a breeze
anyhow. especially if they have been off recently. without the right tool,
they will never come off....
