There should be a couple of 10mm hex heads there that hold the drums on.
After removing them a good whack with a rubber hammer will normally get them
loose if you got the emergency brakes off.
Then there are the times when the drums are sort' a frozen to the hub and
more of that hammer action is necessary.

Hey Y'all  (I'm allowed to say y'all)


Time for another.....
"Stupid
Question of the
Day!"  (SQD, pat. pend.)






How do I pull the rear drums?  Tried tapping (OK, hammering) from
all sides to no avail.  I don't have to remove that huge 462mm nut
just to get the drums off, do I?
