Re: R-100 rear brake hub

The key will either stay in the groove on the axle shaft or come off with the drum and be in the slot on the hub. Either way is no big deal. Probably the least of your worries at this point. Good luck.
You're correct on being the least of my worries. The right rear hub popped right off and looking at it, there's work to be done. Now to try and find brake cylinders, shoes and springs. The left rear hub is still on, but under tension. I hope it pops lose overnight. I remember a few years back there was a thread on this site that gave numbers for brake shoes and parts, that cross-referenced from 50-55 IHC to Raybestos, Wagner and more. I don't have that info, but looking hard.
