the large nut on the pulley has to be unscrewed. you the unscrew the drum pulley, the inner drum then comes out of the front. you can then knock the old bearings out. best way is with a long cold chisel & hammer. ie knock from inside out, then outside in, wear gloves & eye protection in case the bearings shatter.
