Ms.Gnarl,

Don't even look at those nut's !

Look on the drums, and more than likely, the wil be two 10 mm headed
bolts on the face of the drum's.
Remove these, and the drums just might pop off.
If not, heat the center of the drum, just around the hub, and then for
sure they will come off.

Ms. Gnarl scribbles;

How do I check the rear brakes?
Don't tell me I have to remove that huge castle nut! I measured it at 1
13/16, is that right? What is the best tool for the job? Pipe wrench? I
don't even have one but seriously...What is the minimal way to do it?
