Hmmm. Good point on trying to release the shoes. Now I just have to wait to get to the weekend for more tractor time. Couple fellows on the ATIS list suggested heating with a torch. The only thing that would get damaged would be the seals on the shaft, but that they'd need to be replaced anyhow. Use some bolts in the holes to crank down a bit each time I heat it. Bang the drums a bit with a large hammer and I'll make sure to try and get the shoes released too. So with a little luck I'll save the shoes, which sounds like they often break if things are really stuck.
