Rear Brake Backing Plate

Post by Sacaledus »

Can you buy replacements or am I gonna have to head to the JY? The issue with mine currently is my hub is stuck in the plate. Got the hub out of the spindle but cant get it out of the plate... Mind you this is the first replacement of the hub and I'm at 260k+ I was thinking of using a dremmel and cutting it out too..thoughts?

I believe so, From the back I've tried sanding away as much as I can but cant get anything close to the crease. It looks as if it's welded. I was thinking a soak in some mineral spirits, or PB Blaster might help?
