How do I pull the rear drums?  Tried tapping (OK, hammering) from

just to get the drums off, do I?
Tabe, the Carfax man,

Did you take those two 8 mm drum retaining bolts off? Did you release the
parking brakes? You do not need to take the huge nuts off to get this done. A
couple of whacks with a substantial soft faced hammer should work for most
situations. There may be some corrosion between the drum and the hub. Hammering will
loosen that up.
