Easy Cone Washer removal (1 Viewer)

Don’t let the with the cone washers beat you down when replacing the front rotors

Go buy a harbor freight air hammer and order the brass tip for it. Makes the job much easier.

I know I saw a video like this buried in a thread somewhere but I figured I would post my own.

Pro tip - Upgrade the end so it does not slip off the stud

These work great too. Poured a few yesterday. Just wheel weight lead

LoL that's the fastest I've ever seen those come off.

Single brass drift from NAPA has never let me down.

I really wanted that to work and it just wouldn’t

Brass drift has always worked for me but that is awesome. Will definitely pick one of those up.

What size rubber hose did you use for this?

Same. I've taken off maybe 25 cone washers. I think 2 came off with my drift. Air hammer for all the others. I got done REALLY hard hits with the drift and just no movement at all.

I use a small brass hammer. A few good taps always loosens them right up.
