I tried to pry with flat heads, even a little hammer tappin, gah!
its for a 1969 beetle ball joint disc brake front end... and its the dust cap on either end in the centre of the brake drum.
its got me stumped...
and the best tech manual i got simply says 'remove it' without much more elaborate detail lol.

69' baja: kombi box, thing spindles, irs, disc front, type 3 rear drums, 2 inch lift kit, 31x10 rears. 👍
New engine in process: 94mm p&bs, 74mm C/w chomol Crank, 35.5x39 SP heads, turbo. Wierd combo, hopeful torque monsta!
use a rubber mallet, to knock the sucker left and right until it comes out, also with the use if a large flat head screwdriver to leaver it... ir just drill a hole in it and use a slide hammer..
thanks mate.
I just gotta get a bit more rough with it :P

vice grips bigger than 250mm can usually get them off
failing that a good old claw hammer or wrecking bar and lever from one side to the other till it pops off
try harder

Hi
I use a large screwdriver shank, put the shank into the gap between the cap and hub and belt the shank into gap.

big set of multi grips always worked for me, if i ever couldnt get it that way, id start it off with a wide flat blade screwdriver with a square or hex shank, u tap the flat end into the gap behind the dust cap, then use a shifter to twist the screwdriver... once u start it it should come off relatively easily.

I just use a 1/2" socket extension put it between the cap and the drum and hit with a soft face hammer spin wheel 180* keep going and it just pops off.
This is my Volkswagen, there are many like it, but this one is mine. Without me my Volkswagen is useless, without my Volkswagen, I am useless.

i'm sure NASA don't use screw drivers, vise grips or BIG fn mallets to remove their dust caps try one of these
i htink the guys at VW were smarter than the guys at NASA
