Looks like it came off easier after you took the wheel nuts off.... :P ...hehehe...I bought brand new wheel cylinders for mine a few months ago and they cost me $66 each from my local brake guy here in SA.Not Stainless but for that price,who cares?....
Run your fingers over my Holden and I'll run my Holden over your fingers!!!!

Hi David,
Great pictures so far. A question for you on where your $15.95 Gear/ hub puller came from ?
It looks to be a very handy tool for the toolbox and at a reasonable price too.
Keep up the good work (go the mighty FE)
Cheers Stewy   8)

Hi Stewie . Got mine from Not Just Tools in Wauchope ... Should be able to pick one up at most tool shops but the 6 inch  jaws are perfect for  the drums . Let me know if you want one . Cheers Dave .
