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.

Subject: Stupid Question of the Day - Brake Drums?

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?
