Not really unless you think using a cutting torch would be considerd quicker. But I guess that presents its' own problmes. LOL Why would you even ask if there is a different way? The manual way is the right way. And it tells you how to take it apart and put back together again. That's about as quick and easy as it gets. Best of luck with your project. Welcome to the boards. Let us know what else we can help you with.

oh sorry i forgot its 200 big red 83'. and it just kinda seems ridiculous to take off the axle to just get to the brakes ya know? its an online manual and its very vague thats why its confusing me.
