I'm pretty sure I have a Dana 28 in a 35 Carrier.
I'm trying to replace the wheel bearings. It appers to me that the caliper mounting plate (anchor plate) must come off to remove the rotor.
First off, is this true?
Assuming it is, I have not been able to break the bolts loose that hold the mounting plate. Probably never been off (125K miles). Tried penetrating oil to no avail. Wrenches, hammers, cheater bars...still no go. I'm afraid to heat this as there is too much rubber around. Can't fit my impact tool in there. Really agravating. Anyone have any ideas before I give up and take it to my mechanic?
Thanks
