Jimny brake drum removal bolts was created by Fidler33
I read here that the bolts that fit the Jimny brake drums to push them off are m8, but m8 seems to be too big for mine.
None of the bolts I have in my box of odds would fit.Does anyone know what size/tpi bolts I need?

On old Suzuki SJ there is no holes for tearsing so if using bolts fails this may help.
I often get the drum off by one of two methods:

1. Use a wheel or preferably just he rim. Hang the rim on the stud bolts and screw on bolts only halfway on. use the slack to yank the rim in-out as a sliding hammer. others i heard also wack the rim with a large club or hammer. Take care not to damage the threads.

2. Use a rim or brake disc and hang it on the stud bolts with nuts on half way in. use a pry bar between the rim/disc and the center of the hub to press/pull the drum out.

Hoping this was explanatory and not lost in translation. (i am norwegian :) )

I bought some m8's but the diameter is too large - perhaps they are m7
