Joe is right on with that information.  If the MAC
tool fails to pull your drum off, especially with a
good pneumatic impact wrench driving it (manual stuff
is for the birds in my book), your junk just isn't
coming apart and you might want to pass and move
forward to a replacement axle or cut your drum off.

I have plenty of grease on the tool's threads and on
the face where it meets and spins on the axle spindle
too, so that my twisting force is retarded as little
as possible by friction where there's metal twisting
on metal.

I pulled a pair of 1960 Fury (tapered) drums (that I'd
never pulled off before) yesterday with this
discussion in mind as I did it.

once the tool was set up and snug, each drum took less
than 15 seconds of pneumatic impact wrench pressure to
pop, and that's about normal per my experience.

I keep expecting to get a "stubborn" drum that matches
the tightness of the drums that so many others seem to
have, but it just hasn't happened on the 10+ axles
I've done...
