Are you sure it's a semi-floating axle? if you have to remove the axle to remove the drum then it's a full-floating axle, which it should be if original to your truck, Ford went to the semi-floating axle on F250's in 80/81 i believe.

Sorry to say but I broke all 4 of them on my truck the rear isn't so bad wheel cylinders are cheap. Finally got the front two out after about a week of PB Blaster, an easy out, and some heat from a propane torch. I just replaced the rear wheel cylinders I am nervous about using a torch that close to the gas tank.

If you are working on the rear you are buyin wheel cylinders not calipers, hate to mix the two up because the big front calipers on my truck are $90 a pop plus a core charge.
