[NoVa-Corvairs] Early rear wheel cyl removal

[Bryan Blackwell]

Hi folks,

Since we had a beautiful day here yesterday, Trevor and I got a  
little done on the '62 700 wagon's brakes.  We are doing a complete  
overhaul, new hoses, shoes, hardware, and cylinders.  According to my  
trusty shop manual, removing the rear wheel cylinders is just a  
matter of taking off the return springs and shoes (done), removing  
the top pivot (done), removing the hose (loose but still attached),  
and then removing the cylinder.

The cylinder doesn't budge.  Any clues?  I have not removed the axle  
since it's not in the steps.  Thanks for any suggestions.

--Bryan
